Definitely one of the best Vietnam war movies out there. It is more about the psychological trama of the Vienam war which I liked. It can seem a little out there from time to time but that's to get the viewer to understand it from the main character's point of view. This is definitely not for the younger kids out there and it is pretty intense. It is a must have for any DVD collection. It is one of those classic movies everyone has to see at least once. The acting is amazing. Just an overall great movie.

This is a very creative box cover and with the included two discs you get Apocalypse Now which looks great on the DVD, you also get Apocalypse Now Redux a 2001 version of the movie with Remastered video quality and over one hour of additional scenes added into the movie itself that were cut from the original, and many other features including interviews and watching the movie with commentaries from director as the movie plays. All in all i'd say this is a perfect product. However it must be noted that since the movie is very lengthy especially the Redux version, the movie is split with the first half on disc 1 then the second half switching to disc 2. Not a real annoyance or problem its just something you should know.

I was pleased with my purchase of the two-disc special collectors edition. Still great after all these years.
