Built at roughly the same time as the industrial suburbs of Hue. Post-industrial blight and scheduled demolition of the gasworks meant that Kubrick could go there and blow shit up. And so he did. Sad commentary when an English town is a perfect stand in for city destroyed by war.

4:23 The magic disappearing magazine. Nobody ever notices. The scene is all about magazine changing but this guy's magazine disappears, and reappears then he fumbles with the change so he misses the first three enemy but get the last two. Kubrick was too meticulous a film maker for a missing magazine to be accidental in a scene all about changing magazines. It's not only a continuity error for the scene but begs the question of how it happened in the first place. He hasn't yet started filming the magazine change yet, the man has just stopped firing so why would the magazine be out in the first place? So Kubrick did it on purpose. A Kubrick puzzle; Why did he do it? What does it mean? Kubrick experts who missed it for 40 years.

I know this is a year old comment, But I think Kubrick’s point in doing subtle things like this is to show how inexperienced some of these men were in battle. Especially against the VC, they were extremely young, headstrong, and willing to die to kill (both parties). Your point is right though, and if you look at modern military tactics, there’s no way those buildings would be standing before they moved men up.

Great movie. The battle of Hue City was in the movie Under Heavy Fire. I have never seen Platoon and never will.

Any military people here? If so - can you comment on their approach please - Walking casually like this seems poor. Why not move ins sections so each squad covers each over and use the trees for cover. Are they meant to move forward like this?

Sometimes you don't have much of a choice, why you use vehicles as moving cover. Taking cover is best any time possible, but there can also be booby traps in covered positions. Pretty much screwed in one way or the other so ya do what ya can.

Their formation in general is not spread out enough, it's a movie, but normally this would not happen. Just look at the breadth of the explosive attack. If timed better it easily would've taken the whole section. They did use bounding methods when closing on the enemy but while traveling and not in contact you won't necessarily do this because it's slower. The infantry element moves in a point and trail section sometimes with a headquarters section in the middle. It looks like they're doing this but are right up on each other. There is usually more space between sections. Why aren't they moving cover to cover. Because they don't know which direction an attack will come from. The formation is designed to provide security in any direction. Note the offset chevron shape. The point can fire front, left, and right without firing on each other. If flanked the opposite side becomes the new trail. This scene isn't a perfect example

I don't know why he got killed??? THE EXPLOSION WAS SO FAR AWAY FROM HIM. The debree and shrapnol wouldn't have got him. HE WAS STANDING RIGHT BEHIND THE TANK..

You absolutely could get killed from that far away. That’s why controlled demolition experts will observe from a mile away *with* a screen in front of them.
