Plot Summary
Life in the Army will never be the same after an unforgettable wake up call from Academy Award® winner Robin Williams (Best Supporting Actor, Good Will Hunting, 1997) in this smash hit comedy. Williams delivers a tour-de-force performance in the role critics agree he was born to play – legendary armed forces radio deejay Adrian Cronauer. Deployed to Saigon to host a morning radio show during the Vietnam War, Cronauer’s sidesplitting antics and rapid-fire wit make him an instant hit with the troops in the field but soon get him in hot water with his by-the-book superiors. An unforgettable supporting cast and a red-hot soundtrack of ‘60s hits make this the quintessential Robin Williams comedy.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Make no mistake about it: Mr. Williams's performance, though it's full of uproarious comedy, is the work of an accomplished actor. ''Good Morning, Vietnam'' is one man's tour de force.
Fresh: From the start, the film bowls you over with excitement and for those who can latch on, it's a nonstop ride.
Fresh: Offering only hackneyed insights into the war, the film makes for stodgy drama. But Williams' manic monologues behind the mike are worth anybody's money.
Customer Reviews
It's about time!
Well, all I can say is this is the single best performance Robin williams ever had on the Big screen. I am glad l am prepaying for it a month before it's out for more than just the fact that I love it and am willing to part with $10 in 10 seconds to get this for my apple TV. Also I am willing to do it in the hopes that enough pre-orders will make sure apple doesn't change it's mind! the antics behind the Mic in this by Robin alone make this movie worth twice the cost just to laugh out loud so hard. It's a great stress reliever.
I loved it before I saw it
My first exposure to the film was finding the soundtrack in my aunt's pile of CD's. The most memorable parts were the hilarious outings by Robin Williams. They are worth every American dollar, Euro, heck even Yen. Week from 2 days people. Buy, Buy, and click Buy. PS This could mean it's going onto Blu Ray!
Great movie!!
A wonderfully funny classic.
