I think every perosn in here posting that the second half is bad must be braindead
Platoon is the better film imo. Better plot. Better character development.
Plus Sgt. Barnes >>>> Animal Mother

Full Metal Jacket falls apart completely once Joker and the rest of the gang enters Vietnam. Platoon is the better film and is much more effective at getting its anti-war agenda across than Full Metal Jacket.
I agree with this...The first part of FMJ is the best sequence in either movie though, imo.

Platoon for me. I think it's a better movie, and more enjoyable to watch.

both are very solid, but give me Tigerland instead.
