Full Metal Jacket or Jacob's Ladder?
Please help me decide which movie to see tonight.
I've seen Jacob's Ladder, but I was young enough that saying I've seen it is pretty untruthful. I have not seen FMJ, and have been scared to as I usually hate Kubrick (with the only exceptions being Dr Strangelove and The Shining). |

After watching a Clockwork Orange, Eyes Wide Shut and 2001 in the same year....I had to take a little over a decade off before I'd dare watch another Kubrick film. Man those movies sucked. |

What's wrong with Kubrick?
Check out Paths of Glory sometime.

Hmm...I guess it's too hard to actually think about a Kubrick movie and the symbolism being presented.

Jacob's Ladder totally has the Silent Hill thing going for me (the game's said to be based off it a lot)...which really interests me. I mean, I will end up watching both, it's just a matter of which is now and which is later. |

I didn't care for Clockwork Orange.
Check out Paths of Glory. It was one of his earlier films set in WW1. No wierd symbolism, just a good story and a very well photographed movie. The one thing I do like about Kubrick films are the sets, use of shadow and lighting and how the movie is filmed. Just a lot of interesting shots and angles.
