first. but both halves are excellent.
tbf the first half is Shining redux
Neither, they're both shit.
Second because Animal Mother
The second half of the first half and the first half of the second half combined

>>78999721
The first half by far
t. Patrician
Anyone who says otherwise is contrarian. The second half is full of half baked characters and anemic action. The ending had hardly any impact which was disappointing compared to the weight of the first part

>calls himself patrician
>has completely plebian tastes
The first is some of my absolute favorite black comedy in any movie
the second. redditors prefer the first half because of quippy meme instructor

Yet here I am actually discussing why I thought it was bad. If you're going to call someone a pleb, at least explain why. Bad look my pleb friend
Kubrick Is a hack

>Anemic action
Kubrick was never big on action, this is a non-point
>Half-baked characters
How exactly is the platoon they meet up with half-baked? Because you think so?
>>78999721
first
second would be, if not for the reducted ending and the fact that the director didn't want to leave london

The platoon is cliche and uninteresting. And fine let me rephrase it from action to pacing. It just drug and lost all movement. Even though there was fighting and "action" it just felt like the movie went no where
The first.
The second half is so out of touch as far as war movies go, it's unbelievable.
>>79000293
>Cliche and uninteresting
Subjective bias does not mean you're correct
>it felt like the movie went nowhere
Well where the fuck was it supposed to go? They were assigned to the shit, went with the platoon they were assigned to, and yet became the action they were supposed to report on, the second half was just as good as the first
>>78999721
Patrician's choice is second half.
The second half is better because of the fact that the first half was better.
>Is that you John Wayne? Is this me?
Literally what did he mean by this?

It's a reference to stranger things
