some racial slur hilarious but heart breaking

Good Morning, Vietnam is a 1987 war drama directed by Barry Levinson and starring Robin Williams, Tran Thanh Tung, Forest Whitaker, J. T. Walsh, Bruno Kirby, and Chintara Sukapatana. Language(5/5): Frequent language, including 18 uses of "f**k", often shouted aggressively, and various uses of other forms of language including "s**t", "g****mn" "a**hole", "d**k", "hell", "damn", "a**", "b**ch", "piss", "J*s*s Chr**t", "pr**k", "balls", "sl*t", and "oh my G**". 1 use of the words "j*rkoff", "h**ker", "pu**y", and "p***-t**g". Occasional slurs, including frequent uses of "V**t-c**g" or it's abbreviation "VC", and brief uses of "g**k", "ch**k", "d**e", "T*nto", "w**er b***alo", "p***er-head", "cr*cker", mocking phrases for Vietnamese names or towns, insulting a Puerto Rican man, a joke about the I.P.S., and one scene where Adrian Cronaeur rants at a racist man in a bar, saying "if you kick out the g**ks, then you'll have to kick out the ch**ks, the s**cks, the sp**ks and k***s, and then all you would have is a couple of rednecks, now what fun would that be?" Jokes about the size of a black man's genitals, specifying his race and joking at his expense. Cronaeur teaches a class how to swear in English. Sex(3/5): Cronaeur makes an elaborate joke about the size of a man's penis, grabbing a condom putting it on his nose and saying "only the head fits in!" In a false interview with Richard Nixon, Cronaeur asks him about his testicles, his sex life, and considering becoming transgender. Cronaeur makes comments about a woman's physique, intending to date her but being unsuccessful. Implications of a gay man asking Edward for nude pictures of a celebrity. Cronaeur insults his leader before leaving the radio, saying "you are in more dire need of a bl*wj*b than any white man in history". A montage pans over to a couple of young boys showering nude with their genitals briefly showing, however it is very hard to notice and is in a context of showing the culture of Vietnam, not intended to sexualize the young boys in any manner. Drinking, Drugs, And Smoking(1/5): Cronaeur gets drunk once. Occasional smoking. Discussion of marijuana use. Violence(3/5): A quick barfight breaks out after a racist attempts to throw out Tuan and then Cronaeur intervenes and punches him, resulting in destruction of the bar. A couple scenes with violence, including a shocking tone shift from a friendly conversation between Tuan and Cronaeur to the bar they just walked out of exploding and killing a lot of people, showing some bodies with bloodied necks in quick flashes. A montage including "What A Wonderful World" shows wartime violence, including villages and towns getting bombed and trucks carrying injured soldiers home. Cronauer and Edward's car is bombed and overturned by terrorists. The aftermath of a shooting is shown briefly in photographs. Emotional scenes as the plot twist reveals, with some shouting and fighting. Positive Messages(3/5): Social commentary on the Vietnam war and it's consequences on the world. Demonstration of courage, freedom of speech, and compassion by Adrian Cronaeur. Positive Role Models And Representations(2/5): Cronauer is an advocate for letting the troops know the truth, holding nothing back and demonstrating respect for the Marines. He also shows compassion for Vietnamese culture and defends them against their bullies and racists. Quality(opinionated): A very enjoyable movie, with lots of laughs, great performances, and a healthy amount of drama to remind you that this is a war movie. Probably Robin William's best film. (My rating) R For strong language.

"Good Morning, Vietnam" is a pretty good movie. It's not great, but it's not terrible. Robin Williams' acting is really good, and a lot of the jokes are funny. That being said, there are no good role models, very few good messages, lots of pretty salty language and a lot of jokes about sex. there isn't a whole lot of violence, even though it's a war movie. The reason I give it ages 15+ is because a lot of the sex jokes (including a lengthy one centered around a condom) would go over kids heads and spark curiosity leading to unwanted conversations and explanations.

This is by far one of my favorite films. Although it’s Rated R I think teens ages 14 and up should be able to watch it only because there is mostly language and a little violence but there is also drinking and 2 men touch 2 lady’s legs in a sexual way.

A great film. Violent (it is the Vietnam War, after all). Profane (it is a Robin Williams movie, after all). Sex jokes (and nude children; full frontal nudity shown). But great. Heavy, but great.

Awesome, fun Robin Williams Vietnam movie with an emotional twist

Gooooooddd Morning Vietnam!!! Whew its hot our here today, we could do some cooking out there. Yep, CROTCHPOT cooking yea boy!! Thats my favorite line from that movie :) Amazing war movie, mixes humor with intense thematic elements. Its advisable for all to watch

It is a really good movie, really funny, but there is some bad language. All in all, you can't pass it up because Robin Williams is hillarious.

This is a okay movie, but a lot of language like f--k, s--t, goddamn
