Good Morning, Vietnam (1987). In 1965, an unorthodox and irreverent DJ named Adrian Cronauer begins to shake up things when he is assigned to the U.S. Armed Services radio station in Vietnam.

Robin Williams is great, as always, but this isn't a film that's aged particularly well. It's heart feels manufactured, and despite being set in the radio newsroom of Vietnam, it somehow manages to feel apolitical? A feat in and of itself. A killer soundtrack though, and Forest Whitaker was a delightful surprise. 7/10.

Good Morning, Vietnam (1987)

My rating: 6/10

Pretty badly paced - at first it's all endless montages of soldiers and poorly-aged and frequently offensive comedy shtick, and then an hour into the thing, they suddenly decide they want a plot and pathos and things. Which, that part isn't terrible and is probably why this movie is remembered so fondly, but man is that first hour tedious.
