Yeah, I think I've heard of the 'no anti-war films' sentiment before, and vaguely heard that army recruiting increased after 'Full Metal Jacket', of all films. However, I don't agree that idiocy of some part of the public is a reason to write off army, mafia, or any such quasi-satire media wholesale, as the aforementioned commenter did. That position essentially says that it's not allowed to do critique of institutions and practices as part of 'entertainment' art (unless one hams it up to eleven, I guess).
