The moment and purpose of any form of literature is the main point of the switch of work, why it was created and what the author wants the reader to understand or get from his or her work. As for the photographic film total surface Jacket, the director, Stanley Kubrick, wanted to relieve mavinself a combination of comedy as well as a consciousness of actualisation when it comes to a spend becoming a maritime and what it pass waters to be one.The characters by means of bug come on the movie all(prenominal)(prenominal) launch a unlike course of nderstanding and dealing with the problems that they had to quickly overcome. Full Metal Jacket is a movie that shows the contrasting roles and stages of the navals that were stationed in the Vietnam War. The first half of the movie had an entertaining itinerary of showing the earr from each one how they were handy and how t hey learned that they were indeed born to extinguish. The main purpose of the first part of the movie was to show the auditory sense what the soldiers had to go through first in holy tack to touch on it as a marine.It had to be a hard as well as roughwhat brutal and life-changing experience n order for them to be hold to become the killing machines that they were forced to be. The changes that the characters have sh suffer understand the second half of the movie very different in terms of their attitudes, what each soldier viewed as right and upon, as well as the events that take brand throughout the movie. This part of Full Metal Jacket was geargond much to state of wards the actual Vietnam War and revealed the reasons as to why they had to become heartless in a style during their instruct.Throughout the course of the war, some of the soldiers slowly but for received slipped out f their sanity and become cold-hearted killers in order to deliver the goods themselves. Each marine in Full Metal Jacket had to be able to prove that they were worthy comely to take on certain obstacles in the first half of the movie, such as emotional and amiable hazing. Stanley Kubrick made sure to incorpo range as much of the hazing as viable within the first half of the movie in order to show the audience how much work each soldier had to put into the ancestry of their Journey into becoming a marine.If they could non take control of the rate of hazing they received it would be attend ton as a eakness, therefore proving that they argon not ready for the war. For example, Pyle who was a soldier that as overweight clumsy and slow-witted, could not take the stress and harassment that came with the training of becoming a marine and he could not endure the embarrassment that was thrown at him every time he did something wrong, which in turn made him answer to commove suicide as well as murder Gunnery Sergeant Hartman, the do instructor who trains the recruits i n order to turn them into marines.Gunnery Sergeant Hartman take careed to have caused ll of the passion and frustration that Pyle had to go through, therefore Pyles fills proved to the audience and to the marines that were involved, that not everyone roll in the hay make it as a marine and may end up losing their sanity over it. The whole point of allowing the audience to view this is to strengthen the level of maturity that would be required to fully understand the troubles that comes with humanness a marine.The first half of Full Metal Jacket mainly focuses on how much a person can take magical spell preparing for war, being in war, and doing how to act and react to certain issues and comprehend throughout the movie. In The Green Berets, Sargent Peterson, a Special Forces sergeant, quickly realised that he needed to make sure that Hamchunk, a homeless Vietnamese child, was safe and well accounted for when their base was being attacked. This quick form of action shows the audience that he was well trained and knew exactly what to do and when to do it.Full Metal Jacket revealed other substances of bringing out a characters sense of maturity and therefore had a different aspect compared to that scene, and basically the entire movie of The Green Berets. Full Metal Jacket was meant to make the audience completely understand hy the soldiers had to go through training the way that they did. It all comes together once the audience sees firsthand what can reach when a soldier loses his focus or is not fully watchful for what may happen next.The serial publication of events that happens during the second half of the movie could make or break anyone who may not be tough enough to endure all of the negativity. Full Metal Jacket is supposed to be an eye opener and should cause a sense of realization for the audience. In the scene where Doc Jay and Eight Ball, two very brave marines, were being attacked by a niper, Animal Mother, a tough marine, did every thing he could reckon of doing in order to try and save his dying friends, even though he knew that there was no chance of their survival.Regardless, Animal Mother went out alone, against his direct orders, to try and find the sniper and kill her in retaliation. Granted, he could not do it alone, he called the rest of the soldiers to try and track her down. Once they fix her, they shot her, made her suffer in pain for a olive-sized bit and then killed her. In a normal world, doing these actions would seem horrific and sound not right, but due to heir previous training and sudden attack from this woman, the soldiers were forced to murder this woman and left her there.This quality of action or retaliation enforces the moral or immorality that ties in within the movie. Murdering the sniper, especially her being a woman, opens up a to a greater extent intriguing way of the audience socially analyzing the situation. Making the audience decide whether or not murdering her and allowi ng her to suffer was aimable or hard to accept due to her being a woman. As for the soldiers, this decision was made good and as the sniper as laying down suffering, the audience could easily see the reactions that each marine made, showing their different views on their daily lives.Each soldier had their own morals and values compared to other soldiers. Obviously, each soldier has his own personality which brings a different outlook on what it is that they have to do, and how they are supposed to do it. Each soldier must fulfill their mission, and do what they are instructed to do. In Full Metal Jacket, the soldiers seemed to have similar values, and seem to have been brought up or trained almost identically. overdue o the first half of the movie where they had been trained to know and love their rifles and to be ready to shoot and kill whatever was not considered one of them..Every soldier knew what they had to do and they were all comfortable when it came to killing the enemy and possibly sacrificing themselves in the process. Unlike Full Metal Jacket, in the movie Platoon, Sometimes the soldiers take their main source of responsibility and manipulate it. For instance, some of the soldiers took a unexampled girl from the village that they took over and tried to rape her in order to satisfy their ersonal needs, until Chris, the main character as well as the marine who decided to human being and should not be raped Just because of her unfortunate circumstances.This scene showed the audience how some soldiers will have the wrong mentality due to their current hectic lifestyles, while other soldiers know and remember their rights and wrongs from back home when it comes to doing things that they can personally control. Full Metal Jacket seemed to have been made for the audience to view and understand the troubles and obstacles that each soldier has to o through arrivening from his training all the way through his actual fght in the war.The audience is suppo sed to learn and begin to understand how the soldiers are supposed to be trained in order for them to make it during the war, or in order to know what to do to swear out whoever is directly associated with the war. Stanley Kubrick wanted to open up the eyes of the outside world and allow people to realize what each marine has to go through and their purpose for becoming a marine. They are not always out and about trying to rape and murder every woman they detect as well as taking over everything that they see. There is a process that each soldier must go through in order to make it where they need to be.Full Metal Jacket compared to Platoon and The Green Berets makes the audience see both sides of a soldiers life whereas the other two movies barely show the second half of the soldiers life when he is already trained and in the battle field. The other two movies dont show how the soldiers came up to where they are now, it reveals only what they have already accomplished within the mselves, and they already have their own views on life depending on the amount of negative series of events that they have encountered. Full Metal Jacket has more than one meaning, and more than one purpose.Stanley Kubrick wanted to make sure that the audience was able to image and take back with them the struggles and the achievements of a marine. What it takes to become one and what it takes to remain one at all times during the hardships of being in a war. Due to that, the movie seemed as if it should have been two separate movies, which makes it unique, compared to The Green Berets and Platoon where each movie was based solely on the war. Although, all three movies showed the different kinds of ttitudes that evolved into a marine as they each evolved or became a different person whilst being a part of the war.Some characters showed emotion while some didnt show any emotion at all, displaying the different levels of maturity that each marine must have. Displaying the different emotions was meant to allow the audience to see the war in different aspects based on certain marines in the movies. Full Metal Jacket allowed the audience to watch the marines as they evolved from viewing things in different ways. Regardless, the movie was supposed to be a sense of realization and knowledge.
