the d. i . ( 4 outta 5 star ) wow and i certainly do not expect to be enjoy this movie as much a i do . i have never even heard of it until i saw it sit in the discount video bin one day . i figure jack webb play an army drill instructor might be good for a chuckle but figure the drama would pale in comparison to such recent movie d. i. s a portray in full metal jacket or an officer and a gentleman . boy and be i wrong . this be probably the best work webb have ever do . far and away good than his one note dragnet performance . the delivery of his tough guy dialogue be just brilliant . do in his patented deadpan monotone and yet you know that the guy mean every word of it . the story might seem a little hokey compare to the grittier military movie that have follow but i still find the movie fascinating and compelling . even a completely unnecessarily musical interlude in an army nightclub have me hook . anyone know where i can get a copy of that terrific ray coniff song ifn you don not and somebody else will . webb play the tough dang drill instructor ever . and he under pressure to kick out the deadbeat private owen but and by golly and he see a man bury somewhere in that sissyboy and he gon na drag him out kick and scream . great stuff .
