Apocalypse Now Comments

    I very much agree with Roger Ebert's view of this film: modern civilization is nothing more than a crumbling building, perched on nature's hungry blood basin, and will be swallowed without hesitation if it is not careful. A happy life is just a probation day after day in the face of such fragility. It is not so much a depiction of war, as it is how war has revealed the truth that we never want to discover. | Relive on the big screen, shocked to be sealed on the seat. (SIFF, 4K,...

    I personally feel that this highly anti-war water road movie has surpassed ``The Godfather'' and is Coppola's best movie. At least compared to the real and imaginary gangster chronicle, it is closer to the reality of the Vietnam War theme. It can arouse people's mental work when watching movies. Marlon Brando's acting has reached the stage, and his appearance is as shocking as Orson Wells in "Under the Gas...

    Dreaming of a snail crawling on the edge of a razor, calling the Viet Cong Charlie, riding a female warrior in a helicopter, colored smoke bombs, and burning gasoline in the morning are the taste of victory, a chef encounters a jungle tiger, a Vietnamese fisher girl who died saving a dog, "Like this egg, the white (white people) flows away, and the yolk is still there.", Cambodian jungles are self-sufficient and black cows with their necks cut off, eyes under the oil paint in the shadows,...

    It's not because of the length. The reason I suggest to watch it carefully is that after reading it, you will doubt the meaning of human civilization and the world. If there is not enough philosophical quality, it is really exhausting. Coppola's strong pessimism is impregnated here. I don't think it is difficult to understand, but it is too uncomfortable after reading. Even if it is preaching, this preaching is quite frightening! In this sense, this movie is great!...

    The preaching taste is too heavy, too long, and the intention is too obvious, and Coppola is almost writing his ideas directly into a...

    The feature film is 200 minutes, and the feature film is 100 minutes. Music and sound effects are super invincible and powerful! Surreal war movie ~Rock &...

    In the book "Story", the author thinks the film is off-topic and fails.. I think this film is absurd and disappointing.. I was still young when I watched it, but I can already understand the kind of preaching.. Now again When I go back and think about it, I feel that Kubrick’s trilogy of war is more moving to my heart. War is the nature of human beings. This is generally not so easy for people to clarify the question of "what do you think of humans". The answer is......

    Horror Is the Theme of 'Apocalypse Now'

    Horror is outlined ate the beginning of the film when Marlon Brando stays in a room, hurts himself and blood is all over blankets on bed. Horror is with him while he waits for uncertain mission. Of course, he is also accompanied with pain and despair then.

    When he is on the way to Vietnam, he...

    Because of nothingness, so absurd

    When many people evaluate the film "Apocalypse Now", they only go deep into the levels of war, lies, violence, and the darkness of human nature, but I only see the loneliness and absurdity of life, and nothingness from it. Because of nothingness, so absurd.

        Lies are everywhere, all the time. It...

Apocalypse Now quotes

  • Photo Journalist: One through nine, no maybes, no supposes, no fractions. You can't travel in space, you can't go out into space, you know, without, like, you know, uh, with fractions - what are you going to land on - one-quarter, three-eighths? What are you going to do when you go from here to Venus or something? That's dialectic physics.

  • Kurtz: We train young men to drop fire on people, but their commanders won't allow them to write "fuck" on their airplanes because it's obscene!
