Constant snacking is good, but i have to stop.
I can't decide if ignorance is good or not. Can't you just come clean? You're driving me nuts.

I can't decide if I like Apocalypse Now or not. The movie isn't like any other war movie I've seen before. Every movie I've seen has a certain aftertaste, a lingering feeling of the overall tone, nailed into the psyche by the climax. I'd elaborate on the aftereffects of Apocalypse Now, but I started writing this for no reason; and that can only give me enough articulating juice for so long.
So just spare two and a half hours of your sunny summer day to watch this piece. Its quality lies somewhere in the realm of amazing, disturbing and draggy.
