Revealing mistakes: Right before the restaurant explosion, you see a couple enter through the front door, but if you keep looking, you can clearly see both running right before the door closes.

Quotes:
[Before Hauk goes on the air, the other men gently try to change his mind, then Eddie just leans down to the microphone]
Edward Garlick: Sir, you're not funny. Ask around.
Staff Sgt. Dreiwitz: Ask me. I mean, I know funny, sir, and I don't think you're it. It's like me, I'm not much with power tools...

I wasn't alive to witness most of the key events of what is happening in GMV, but I had a good understranding of it. I have to admit everytime I see it the movie always makes me laugh. But I imagin if you know the events of Nixon, the Vietnam war, the pope and the other events mentioned in Good Morning Vietnam, you will only find it funnier. Robin Williams plays Airman Adrian Cronaure, a DJ with a sense of humor that always makes everyone smile. He is brought into a military radio station to do morning shows, and atracts an incredible amout of fans and listeners. The troops in the field love him, with all his hilarious antics and with him playing the greats in music. But the brass can't stand him and are willing to do anything to get him thrown out of the job. The humor is real enjoyable for everyone young and old. Robin brings in yet another great performance that pleased me, my friends and my whole family. 7.2/10
