Born on the Fourth of July is big and clunky, so I was surprised to still like it 30 years later. I'll try to read Kael (pan) and Kauffmann (praise) again. Too much speechifying, of course--but I find it more bearable here than coming from Costner in JFK. There are parts I find moving, especially when Cruise visits the two parents in Georgia. I don't know if the music here ever gets mentioned, but Stone uses pop really well: "Soldier Boy" early on, "Moon River" at the prom (great), the 5th Dimension at a parade (perfect), and he even gets a convincing cover of "Born on the Bayou" from a fictional bar band.
