Review of if.... (1968) by Parker M — 21 Feb 2013
Perfect. Absolutely Perfect. Although dated, I feel as though Anderson has created something timeless in his portrayal of the nationalistic nightmare inherent in any contemporary ideological state apparatus.
Although an unfair comparison; This is Full Metal Jacket - if Full Metal Jacket where about military indoctrination as a whole, which is of course, something that is not unique to the United States of America.
I will go further and say that this is a film which examines the inevitable result of systemic physical and mental abuse inflicted on free-thinking young men and women everywhere. This film is a perfect microcosm where "people" triumph over "sheeple" in a violent turn of events.
5/5.
