During the Vietnam War, a group of young men who joined the Marine Corps had their heads shaved and came to the boot camp. The master sergeant who was in charge of training them often humiliated them and gave them a nasty nickname. "Fool Pyle" was fat and always made mistakes in his actions, so he became the person most often repaired by the sergeant. The monitor "clown" took care of him patiently. But the fool Pyle made another mistake, causing the Sergeant Major to punish the team angrily. The partners finally couldn't bear it and beat the fool Pyle. After that, the fool Pyle began to talk to himself about the gun. He showed his shooting talent. Even the sergeant commander praised that he could finally become a great "killing machine". On the night he set off for the battlefield of the Vietnam War, Pyle hid quietly. He went into the toilet, filled his M14 with "", then shot and killed the Sergeant Major in a state of extreme madness, and then committed suicide by sitting on the toilet with a gun.

The clown saw that the young soldiers were numb, drinking alcohol beside the corpses of the Viet Cong, and laughing while shooting the escaped villagers from the helicopter. He patrolled the crowd and strayed into the unswept area. Everyone was ambushed by the sniper. After the sacrifice of several companions, they finally determined the building where the sniper was hiding. When the clown was alone, he suddenly found the sniper. The opponent turned out to be very young. Young girl. The photographer who came with him shot and rescued him. The girl was struggling painfully on the ground. A soldier asked everyone to leave, leaving the girl to decay here. In the girl’s "kill me" pleading, the clown finally picked up the gun and pulled the trigger.

    The emotional transformation at the front and back ends is really big enough. On how the killing machine is cultivated, it must be so abnormal to completely strip a person's personality... It's a swear word textbook, but it's really cool! Instructor! Please scold me again!

    [Chinese Film Archive Kubrick Exhibition Screening] The second time I watched it on the big screen, the sound and picture are excellent, very HIGH. Especially the training scene with constant foul language at the beginning, which is very refreshing. The criticism of war and the analysis of human nature are both Kubrick-style and profound. Of course, there are also his iconic long shots.
