Jarhead

This is a pretty good war movie set in the first Gulf War. It has a kinda Full Metal Jacket story progression. Boot camp, shipping out to war, fighting in war, going insane in war.

I was impressed with the visuals- the desert terrains were shot near Brawley, CA (it's really remote-- I've driven past it to El Centro, which is really really remote) and things like burning oil fields were added with CG.
