Does Full metal Jacket have a story or plot? That's regarded as one of the greatest movies ever.

A movie needs to engage, whether its through visuals or story. Mad Max has a narrative and plenty of subtext, you just can't see it because gums aren't flapping.

By the way, subtext doesn't mean subtitles.

Are you fucking kidding me?? Full Metal Jacket is one of the BEST Dialogue films ever. Great characters sewn in with GREAT dialogue and a splash of violence. That movie is a great "slice of life" and is not plot driven.


The new Mad Max has NO DIALOGUE, NO PLOT and NO STORY. IF you remove the cars and the explosions you HAVE NOTHING. IF I were 10 years old, I would've loved the new Mad Max.



Don't ever compare Full Metal Jacket to Mad Max.
