What does Apocalypse Now mean? I have no idea. Solve it and explain it to the master!

During the Vietnam War, Captain Willard of the U.S. Army was ordered by the headquarters to look for Colonel Coates who had left the U.S. Army. Coates once had a glorious history, but now he is crazy. He established an independent kingdom in Vietnam, ruled savagely, bloodily and inhumanely, and from time to time carried out crazy and almost nonsense broadcast propaganda to the US military.

Willard's orders are to find Coates and bring him back, or kill him. With this order, Willard led a small group of soldiers up the Mekong River and through the jungle to Vietnam. In the process of searching for Colonel Coates, Willard almost crossed the entire battlefield in Vietnam.

He witnessed all kinds of scenes of atrocities, terror, killing and death and was deeply shocked. In the constant killing, Willard almost went crazy. Finally, Willard and his party finally came to Coates' terror kingdom. They fell into the hands of Coates and were tortured. But it also allows Willard to face Coates directly.

Coates could have killed Willard, but he didn't. He finished his long-awaited death by Willard's hand and finally got rid of this crazy world. Willard also deeply realized the evil and darkness in human hearts and the madness caused by evil.

The aborigines knelt before him, and he actually replaced Coates. Willard, who really hated all this, picked up his companion and boarded the boat to leave. Coates' madness has stopped, but throughout the battlefield in Vietnam, terror and killing are still going on like crazy.
