I found this movie highly overrated

I really did not enjoy it that much, maybe I was not in the mood for this type of film, but really found it overrated for me anyways, usually I enjoy what IMDB rates highly but this got my lowest rating for the top 250, only give it 5/10, kind of boring to me!
PS, I do enjoy war movies or movies that have some relationship to wars but not in this case!

Same here.

It's certainly not the classic many pwople say it is.

Caviare to the general. There will always be people incapable of appreciating the sublime. The loss is theirs.

Apocalypse Now is certainly the best film about the 'Nam.

It took me about five days to drudge though this dog. Shame on IMDB for misleading me into thinking it was some sort of masterpiece.
