This is the most realistic depiction of USMC boot camp ever!
GYSGT Ermey was originally hired as an advisor. When Kubrick saw him with the “recruits” he fired the original actor who played the senior Drill instructor.
Tarantino films need 4k with dolby vision
@listerone yes!! And Jackie brown
Tarantino is not a fan of 4K. Although his opinion might not matter as far as a release?
mg he’s not a fan of 4K?
@@mg-ThisHandleIsSoStupid someone needs to show him a 4k dolby vision movie with Atmos. I would pay 35-40 for a nice pulp fiction 4k steelbook.
hes not a fan of 4K because he hates todays tech for filming, he hates digitally filming. but I hope pulp fiction and hateful eight get a 4K release. A 4K tarantino collection would be amazing!
Before buying a 4K I literally search for your review
Me too..and i'm italian😅
Dude I love how honest your reviews are! You're the reason I moved to 4K. Keep them coming.
So is A Clockwork Orange next?
I think I heard a rumor that it’s coming out early 2021 but I don’t know how accurate that is. Clockwork orange and eyes wide shut are really the two major Kubrick ones that need a 4K release considering Barry Lyndon has a criterion
There are rumors they are doing a 4K clockwork orange for the 50th anniversary because 1 its the 50th anniversary and 2 the old blu ray came out on an anniversary as well
Bring on Clockwork Orange in 4k!
As far as I know Kubrick shot Full Metal Jacket almost entirely or all of it in England, even the jungle scenes I believe are shot in build sets and not actually location. That's a big difference between this and Apocalypse Now which is almost entirely shot in the Philippines.
FMJ was shot in Cambridgeshire, on the Norfolk Broads, and at the former Millennium Mills, Beckton Gas Works, Newham (east London) and the Isle of Dogs.
Full Metal Jacket was shot not far from me ,well part of it was anyway at Bassingbourne Barricks for the training shots and the action scenes at Beckton Gas works in East London , no longer there now.
@@davidprice6994 Yeah I was pretty sure after Kubrick moved from Hollywood to the United Kingdom in the early 60s he almost never left the country. Pretty neat you're near a filming location for one of his films.
@@iangray1980 Although he has stated he's not reviewing the discs from a technical standpoint but just from a lay consumer point of view. Of course it doesn't hurt to educate yourself more.
@@iangray1980 How do you know what the original filmmaker's intent was? That's a sincere question.
Brilliant review mate
Platoon baby need a 4k of that
The next Stanley Kubrick movie released in 4K needs to be A Clockwork Orange.
It's happening.
YES
I’ll get it, but I wish they would have done A Clockwork Orange and Eyes Wide Shut first (not to mention Barry Lyndon).
It will be most likely next year for the anniversary
I read somewhere that Clockwork actually was intended to be Warner’s 2020 UHD release, but it was either taking more time than FMJ, or else 2021 is just a better anniversary year for it so FMJ is 2020 and Clockwork is 2021. Anyway, it’s coming!
Apparently Kubrick went for the documentary look with this film. To me it looks like a 1980's film. I wonder if the quality of the Kodak film stocks went down over the years.
Can’t wait for Barry Lindon
Now we need Barry Lyndon on UHD! Imagine that
The Criterion is beautiful. Gonna be hard to HDR well on that movie.
Devin Stambolziovski How so?
Linus Wärn I think part of the issue for UHD would be how the film was shot and how the primary lighting source is actual candlelight, so the Criterion 4K transfer on BD is probably the absolute best the film can look without altering it heavily to the point where it’s no longer the actual film anymore.
Somebody needs to send Jeff a new slip cover...
Did u notice any difference from the DVD to blu ray on sound quality
Good Morning Vietnam.
Another Great Vietnam Movie
Great Review
I got it anyway because 4k flat out just makes Everything more Real, if it’s done right. And it comes with the Blu-ray. No “hard sell” for me! I want All the iconic classic films on 4k as long as the reviews are not bad
platoon should be up on that list of #1and 2
I agree. Where is Platoon 4k!?
Agree. Hope they can fix the sound because on the DVD & Blu Ray the sound wasn’t very good at all.
What about “We Were Soldiers” ??
Black Friday buy
Eyes wide shut would look great on 4K
Great review and very honest. I had the privilege of attending the UK premiere of this film with Stanley Kubrick with a Q&A afterwards. He was so shy. 😄
Great posting and, yeah, great review by films.
Anybody knows the trailer last song name?
2:15 noooooooooo
My top Vietnam movies are Platoon & Full Metal Jacket.
I don't remember I was a fan of apocalypse now. The Deer Hunter was great too.
Barry Lyndon. Barry Lyndon. Barry Lyndon. I can't wait!
Already on criterion 4K scanned
@@itsmaxBTC But still a blu-ray, not a 4K Ultra HD. Correct?
Two things bro: 1. Please do a video on where your international brotha’s can order movies, I’m in Australia. 2. DO MORE ROOM TOUR VIDEOS!! - I love coming home grabbing some snacks, chillin and putting on your vids, but I gotta see more of your collection. Nice SLOW room tour picking out all your vids.
Bought a Panasonic ub820 and a 65" CX in the last month. Haven't paid for media in 15 years lol. I can afford it now!
i hope its clockwork orange next
I Dont Know What Type Of Set Up Your Watching On...
But If You Do Got The 8K Set Up Or A High End 4K Set Up...
I Had The Same Problem With Top Gun, On 4K, & Another One Recently... I Called Out A Tech,
But He Didn't Have No Idel How To Get The Grain Out...
So After He Left I Tweaked Around With All The Options...
Found Out All You Have To Do To Get The Grain Out Of Most Of The Old Movies, That Are Upgrading To 4K, Is Just Turn Your Shape To 0, & Should Take Care Of Your Problem, & Make The Picture Alot Smother As Well... Hopefully That Helps You With Your Grain Problem...
If Not Get A 8K SAMSUNG TV, & 8K DENON AVR,. Like Me, Then It Will Lol...
I’m a Full Metal Jacket super fan. I have the entire first half of the movie memorized word for word, I’ve seen it (the first half) hundreds of times. I have the VHS, DVD, Digitally Remastered DVD, the Blu Ray, all of it. If I could camp out in front of Walmart to get the 4K I would!
You have it in HD DVD?
OneBgBdArtemis Yeah, and on laserdisc. I found them on eBay a couple years back for around $10 I think. I keep planning on framing the laserdisc but haven’t yet
@@Tomhyde098 That's awesome!! I'm still wondering what the 4K comparison to HD is.
Drill instructor, not drill Sargent.
The movie was filmed outside of London. I do think it was pretty controlled.
No need to upgrate if atmos is missing🙄
I paid 9.99 for it on Amazon.
All the Vietnam scenes are shot in the UK.
Rikard Stromberg Wrong, it was England. U.K. is isn’t a country.
I have the bluray....do I upgrade to 4k?
He just said that the 4K is better.
Yes, it’s Kubrick!
Yes.
Is it Full Screen or Wide-screen I don't like how these 4K movies are in Wide-screen wish they made them more in Full Screen
I like your reviews, will Eyes Wide Shut finally be available in 4K?
Warner is slowly working through its Kubrick collection. All of them should make their way to 4k Blu-ray. The pandemic has slowed things down.
Platoon 1986?
I don"t have the bluray so it's an upgrade for me from dvd
same
I love that DVD. The only version where you can see the films in their original intended 1.33:1 ratio. The headroom is life-changing.
I just heard the news about Spaceballs!!
When will then be now??
I can’t wait for A Clockwork Orange on 4K next year for the 50th Anniversary
when clockwork orange comes out it’s going to be so good i bet
also why are 4k cases such shit? all mine break.
@@TheMobCultVideo not sure, all countrys have the same plastic but I dont usually touch my cases I just put em on my shelf but I have never had a case thats broken before
I am really eager to see Barry Lindon in both 4k and Dolby Atmos (or DTS:X). I hope we’ll get BOTH and not be disappointed. The soundtrack really deserves an object based upgrade.
I love the way you make your reviews.. makes me very selective on what 4k movies i should I buy ... 👌 keep it up
Including Spartacus and Dr. Strangelove would you still rank FMJ 3rd out of all Kubrick 4Ks??
What a great year of 4k
Love your reviews. Keep up the awesome work
I might pick up that kubrick 4k boxset, because I don't have any of his movies!
the documentary Boxes didn't get added from the digibook bluray of FMJ unfortunately that would be a good port over.
Platoon is No:1
Absolute rubbish. 4K blu-ray is not as "brilliant" as we're lead to believe. In most cases you must really look closely to see any difference in picture. Don't be fooled, and save your money !!
Tight wad
DTS-HD Master Audio and Dolby True HD, although they are lossless codes they are in fact compressed
Thanks very much for reviewing this movie. I am purchasing the film with the link you provided. This is one of my favorites.
It is very disappointing that Warner USA doesn’t produce the same 4K special Collectors editions that are produced in UK!
Agree with the comment below, A Clockwork Orange in 4K would be fantastic!
That's coming next year.
Atmos??
I appreciate your take on 4k releases. If you say its good I'm sure it is. That being said I would love to see more side by side screen shots. A picture is worth a million words on a 4k review. Especially since its so subjective.
Watch a lot of reviews only just found your channel have to say you are very in depth with the all round review, like that you look at the sound transfer as well.
Most reviewers just concentrate on the scrip or affects only. Keep it up as I just subscribed to this channel so please keep the same style as your wicked at reviews chap. Exactly what I want in a review 💯
Take 100
The cover art resembles the style of the Shining release. I'm sensing an encouraging trend here and indications that Warner has plans for the rest of the Kubrick Collection.
So, it’s all about that $2 HDX with VUDU’s disc to digital? 👍🏻🇺🇸
Have you checked out the Rambo 4k blirays at all?
Don’t forget that a huge fave, Dr. Strangelove was also a 4K in the Columbia Classics box 👍. Yes, an older movie and also b&w lends itself to a better crispness (usually), but I still like keeping all Kubrick’s work in as excellent a quality as possible... Spartacus, anyone, hehe...
Dr S looks great, watched it as part of the Columbia classics collection. Haven’t watched in years, forgot how great a film it is.
Great review...I've haven't seen it yet.
Great channel thanks. I bought a BenQ W5700 because of your review so thanks for that too. Quality. Try headphones for 2.0 makes a more immersive experience, and doesn't annoy the neighbors. Looking forward to Clockwork.
Special edition out in UK monday
No Platoon is the No 1 Vietnam movie 🤷🏼♂️
Agree with the audio it’s not much better than bluray
Would love to see how good the natural lighting in Barry Lyndon would look in 4K uhd.
Got the collection for the 18th bday, I'm a huge sucker for everything Kubrick and want to be a filmmaker
Great review, Jeff! Been a fan for a while and watched your video on Goodfellas today as the new 4k Steelbook was released today. Your lighting, camera and mic quality has improved DRASTICALLY. It's awesome seeing you get so much support and improve more. I'll end up passing on this unfortunately, but am appreciative of the honest review! Do you happen to know if Goodfellas steelbook has a new mastering on the 4k disc, or is it the same as the older release?
I’ll pass too, I’ll want the 2001 & The Shining first and second. I did get the Apocalypse Now set so I have to watch that as well. So many movies, so little time! 🤔
This is not two movies; it is one film with a central theme. The metamorphosis of a killer.
Hi Jeff. Can you please check the menu and tell me if there are portuguese subtitles on the 4K disc?
I saw the Best Buy steelbook for this and instantly pre ordered, it’s gorgeous
It really is a beautiful steel book. Everything about it.
Is the Blu Ray disc the new transfer, or the same transfer from 2007?
thanks for the review, set myself an amazon price watch for 14.99
The new cover art does not have the same mystique. The jungle scheme is nice. Its good to see a new cover but would have wanted something a bit more ominous.
I went to Marine Corps boot camp 14 years ago and I never saw this movie. I think I finally watched it after 3 years in. It was definitely a spectacle.
Also in the USMC, they're called Drill Instructors (DI). Drill Sergeants are the army's version.
I appreciate you editing in a few little reference clips to keep things fresh during your reviews/videos. I'd keep doing it when it feels natural to do so.
Just got the full metal jacket on 4K can’t wait to watch it tonight
Just curious. Why do you shoot your videos so close to your face? How about pulling back and sitting down at a chair and table, to show us the disc and packaging while reviewing it?
Appreciate the review. Love this movie. Wish it had Dolby Atmos.
Got the special edition on blue ray pre order art cards poster and book next Monday
It's Kubrick, so it deserves to move to the front of the list!
Lol, watch Platoon, boy or the deer hunter
Love full metal jacket one of my favourite stanley kubrick films
Great review! You forgot about Platoon though, an absolute classic Vietnam movie.
I think Kubrick was going for that documentary style Vietnam war footage and news cast footage look for the 2nd half.
I thought Spartacus was top notch
The only downside to Spartacus 4k is the movie is too long and gets a little boring at times. The restoration is mind blowing when you watch the featurette and they compare and show what they did
Nate Mekis I respect that but that’s just a personal feeling toward the movie itself. I think an epic is an epic and can be as long as it needs to be. I like the fact it has a break in the middle and was an event to go to back in 1960 at the theatre. It was like going to a broadway play. I respectfully disagree with that.
Lol I just came into the comments to say the same thing.
All of the Kubrick 4K releases have been pristine!!
Really looking forward to picking this up as I’ve never owned a physical copy before. Would like to get the 3-pack but I already bought the special edition 2001 release. Thanks for the review! Great content as always.
I don’t consider Full Metal Jacket in the top two...not even close. But that doesn’t mean it’s not a great film.
The greatest Vietnam films
1. Apocalypse Now
2. Platoon
3. Deer Hunter
4. Full Metal Jacket
Have you seen this in HD DVD? I ask because that's the version I currently have and was wondering what the 4K looks like compared to that.
My top Viet 5
1. Apocalypse now
2. Casualties of war
3. Heaven & Earth
3. Full metal jacket
4. Deer hunter
5. Platoon
FMJ is my favorite Vietnam War picture, and second would be Hamburger Hill -- which is under rated and not talked about nearly enough. It's a brutal, sad, realistic war film. Sort of reminds me of Hacksaw Ridge in its gritty intensity and emotion.
Please review the punisher 4k or American psycho 4k honestly fantastic transfers imo
Gonna shoot my shot even if you may not comment, If I Bought a 3.1 setup would I be ok without the rears for most movies until I figure out the surround setup in my open space? I plan on going with the klipsch rp-8000 and matching center channel , with a powered sub (haven’t decided yet)
Thanks!
Good review on a great movie. Love that “Boots are Made for Walking” scene. 👍🏻
Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket seems like an uncompleted film, but to me that's poetic justice to one of America's uncompleted wars. The film is harsh and doesn't turn a blind eye to the atrocities of Vietnam. Kubrick is the true master of atmosphere in film. He makes you feel like you are there. Friends of mine have commented that they only like the first half of the film and that the second half falls apart. I believe Kubrick sets up the first half to be an understandable reflection of the terror that would eventually enter the lives of these soldiers during war. It is easy to identify with being picked on because we all have in some way. Not all of us, on the other hand, have fought in war. Kubrick is the master. 4kmovies co
Nice review 👍....do ya know if the standard blu ray included in the set is remastered or the same release as a few years back??
This movie is about Marines not the Army
I saw this review and because of it, I did not buy it because I already have the Blu-ray. Instead, I rented this new 4k version on Apple TV for 4 bucks. I have to strongly disagree about the sound. Compared to the Blu-ray this is far better! Your comment about how you were going from speaker to speaker to make sure you were getting all the channels... that’s exactly what I was doing with the standard Blu-ray version, but I had no issue with this version. I hear all the channels perfectly and the explosions and sounds of war are Thunderous in my system! Even made me jump a few times! Way better! I agree that some of the scenes outdoors are not Always as detailed as one would expect (naturally) but much of it Is! It looks Beautiful! Sounds beautiful! I’m so glad I got a chance to preview it for myself because this release is far better visually and sonically than the Blu-ray. FAR better! As I was watching it I became more and more confused about this review. The upgrade is definitely not as Stunning as The Shining but it’s still fantastic and worth the upgrade. $25 is fair
