as i peruse through the hundreds of comments that loyal readers of the imdb have posted on this film and i find it very interesting how few  and middle of the road comments there are. everyone either loves it and or they hate it. having seen apocalypse now approximately 30 times and and having recently dissected it on dvd (how did we ever live without those magical digital machines. ) and i can say without hesitation that i am one of those who have a very special place in my heart for this film. why would you like a film that so confusing. ask many of my associates. the answer is this represent forget the war and forget the brutality. this is a classic story of society protecting itself from those that refuse to fall in line with the status quo. brando represents the individual that has his own way of getting the job done. they (big brother) sent him out to do the job and he does it too well and without adhering to the accepted standards of death and destruction (am i the only one who troubled by the fact that we have tandards for death and destruction. ) and so they send the conformity police out to eliminate the individual. hmmmmmm. draw any parallels between this and things you see every day. with the deepest respect to mr. coppola and whom i believe is one of the best directors of all time and i think he transcended his original intent of the movie and and probably do not even realize it until after the movie was released. the subtle sub text that permeates the entire movie has way too much to it to have been planned and portrayed while instead and it seems to have grown itself and like some wild flower in the middle of a vegetable garden. again i must reiterate represent i think ff coppola did a bang up job on this entire production and as did the cast and crew and but the sum of the movie exceeds the individual efforts ten fold. so if you haven not seen the movie and rent it and watch it and then watch it again and and maybe a few more times and and look for all the generic parallels to everyday life. only then make a judgment on the quality of the film. those of you that have seen it and watch it again with the mindset previously described. i think you may just have a whole new appreciation for the film. or maybe not. no matter whether you love it or hate it and be sure and give credit to coppola for his masterful story telling style.
