    All Music Guide Review

    A very strange, very jarring soundtrack album release that starts out with a selection of '60s pop hits and transitions through "The Marines Hymn" to Fairlight performances by Abigail Mead (actually Vivian Kubrick, daughter of director Stanley Kubrick). The original part of the album is dark and sometimes unmusical, but works better than might be expected, even in the context of the film. The album generated a European Top Ten hit with "Full Metal Jacket (I Wanna Be Your Drill Instructor)," performed by Kubrick and Nigel Goulding. ~ Steven McDonald, All Music Guide
