Prostré dans une chambre d'hôtel de Saïgon, le jeune capitaine Willard tente vainement de noyer son anxiété dans l’alcool et la drogue. Il est bientôt sorti de ses délires par une convocation des services secrets américains. Le général Corman lui confie une mission clandestine : se débarrasser du colonel Kurtz, un ancien héros de guerre transformé en gourou et qui exerce sa sombre fascination sur un village immergé dans le cœur de la jungle, à la frontière cambodgienne. Accompagné d’une poignée de soldats peu aguerris et épuisés, Willard remonte le fleuve dans le but de retrouver Kurtz. Peu à peu, la petite équipée de militaires américains s’enlise dans le cauchemar vietnamien.
Notes : Apocalypse Now est une adaptation libre d’Au cœur des ténèbres (Heart of Darkness) le roman de Joseph Conrad. Francis Ford Coppola transpose l’univers du livre situé au Congo au contexte de la guerre du Vietnam. En 2001 est sorti en salles Apocalypse Now: Redux, une version rallongée de cinquante minutes supervisée par le réalisateur.
