I give it to AN only on the strength of the redux version. I never liked the movie that much until I saw it on the big screen for the redux release a couple of years ago.

I'm saddened to see a movie that isn't even a war movie winning the "greatest war movie of all time" honor.

Both good films, but Apocalypse Now needs to win this one.

agreed. Apocolypse Now is a very flawed movie but still absolutely brilliant

Come on now, what would you classify these movies as if not war? If you had the following classification options and you could only choose one: comedy, horror, action, drama, war, sci-fi, squirrel porn.

Personally I'd pick the war category for both of our finalists, as well every other movie in this entire poll.

Wow, what results. How could anyone watch these two movies and come to the conclusion that Full Metal Jacket is the better movie?

I'm really curious.

You are absolutely right. I will add Platoon to that list too. But the helicopter sequence in AN and the first part of FMJ have no equals.

Of course, I don't think the "Battle for Algiers" was a choice, so this poll is seriously flawed.

Maybe because a lot of people can't make it past the first hour of AN?

These same people are somehow able to make it through the second half of FMJ?

The movie is about internal struggle, set to a war(ish) backdrop.

It isn't about war itself. But whatever, I don't really care. Kuddos for doing this poll series though.
