This film is set during the early days of he Vietnam conflict and opens with DJ Adrian Cronauer played by Robin Wlliams being posted from Cyprus to host one of the armed forces radio station broadcasts. Before his arrival the material broadcast had been heavily censored and the DJ 's stuck to a rigid playlist of approved musc. Cronauer is a bit of a rebel and immediately starts playing his own rock and roll music and his fast talking on air soon upsets his straight laced military bosses. However he becomes so popular with the troops that they are forced to stick with him. Soon however he begins to fall in love with a local girl and he gets dragged into the ...

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDD MMMMMMMORNING VIETNAAAAAAAAAM! The first time I saw this film, I couldn't wait to get hold of the soundtrack as it promised not only some great music (which is well used in the film) but also snippets of ad libbing Robin Williams gave as he stars as Adrian Cronauer, controversial radio DJ sent out to entertain and uplift the troops as they fight in Vietnam. It is one of those rare films where the soundtrack stands out more than the film itself, despite both being of a very high calibre. It very much revolves around Cronauer's arrival in Vietnam to be the main DJ for the troops' radio station, and as his controversial 'stand-up' ... Read the complete review

I used to love M*A*S*H* and fondly remember those evening curled up on the sofa laughing at the loveable Hawkeye. This programme represented my limit of knowledge on the various wars of the world. Having never taken history at school my knowledge of the worlds political history is admittedly dire. A now glowing example is that I started talking about MASH to lead into talking about Good Morning Vietnam - thinking that both the Korean War and the Vietnam war were the same. In fact as I watched the film last night I realised that I had no idea when Vietnam happened or why or even where Vietnam is. They are things I will have to go and look up after I've finished this ..

When I searched for this film and saw it was only given 3 stars I suffered much confusion! Good Morning, Vietnam is a classic! I like war films, and I like comedy, and this manages to combine the two without creating a parody such as Hot Shots, and I feel as funny as M*A*S*H. The events are loosely based on the real life story of Adrian Cronauer. The Plot (briefly) --------------- The year is 1965 in Saigon, where American forces are fighting the Vietcong in Indochina. Directed by Barry Levinson, the film starts with the arrival of Adrian Cronauer, a disk jockey, from Crete to bring some zest to the forces radio station in Asia. He is met on arrival ...

There are not all that many light-hearted movies about the war in Vietnam but this comedy sees the lighter side of Vietnam with the help of Robin Williams who was at his best in his 1987 release. Robin Williams has always been a quick-fire stand-up comic who has a ready-made quip or witty comment for most situations that arise. In this movie he plays real-life U.S Armed forces radio DJ Adrian Cronauer. He broadcasts his funny radio show from his base in Saigon to the troops fighting the Vietnam War in order to raise moral and make things not seem quite so bad. During the radio show he delivers his own brand of humour with jokes and irrverent ... Read the complete review
