Band of Brothers :)

Second that!

Fully agree on all those mentioned, but I have some others to add.

Saving Private Ryan
The Deer Hunter
Apocalypse Now

I have yet to see All Quiet On The Western Front (based on Erich Maria Remarque's 'Im Westen Nichts Neues'), both the original from the thirties and the TV movie from '79, but I hear they're pretty good too.
I'm also very anxious to see Der Untergang, soon appearing in cinemas.

Worst war movie ever: Pearl Harbor :twisted:

Band of Brothers, Full Metal Jacket, Platoon, Saving Private Ryan.

i found Saving Ryan's Privates boring

i liked black hawk down tho

band of brothers and saving private ryan are top of my list,i like pearl harbour but as brembo said its a romantic love story more than a war film,well 3/4 of it anyway.

i have yet to see a lot of the older war films,i will eventually though :D

Band of brothers
Full metal jacket
Saving Private Ryan
Black Hawk Down
hmm.. and "Eagles Nest" or something with Clint Eastwood, if you can call that a war movie..

I would like to add

1. Das Boot / The Enemy Below /Run Silent Run Deep - submarine thrillers
2. Patton
3. The Bridge on the River Kwai
4. The Longest Day
5. Operation Petticoat - funny
6. Where Eagles Dare
7. The Great Escape
8. The Guns of Navarone
9. Tora Tora Tora
10. The Scarlet and the Black
11. All quiet on the Western Front
12. Braveheart - though I am yet it see it from beginning to end (I have seen it 7 times and always got interrupted :D)

Some of the above listed movies show battle scenes while the rest are constructed with the war going on in the background.

My favorite in the above set? --> "All quiet on the Western Front" - a pathbreaking anti-war war movie. It is black and white and is a silent movie but the way it presents war is magnificent. A must see in my book .....

"Johnny Got His Gun"

metallica fans will know what movie it is!!

LOL, Sameerrao beat me to it, he listed a lot of good movies.
Band of Brothers easily tops the list, everyone should see that at least once.
Midway is a classic
Behind Enemy Lines
We Were Soldiers
Pearl Harbor was good, even with it's hokey love story
Stripes, does that count as a war movie? :lol:
Thats all I can come up with at the moment.

So what's new :roll: j/k :P

"Saving Private Ryan", "Platoon" and another one I saw lately (about Vietnam), forgot the name though.

Down Parascope...

It's not so much that I want you dead, but, I just want you to.....not be alive....anymore. :wink:

What about Desert Storm 1 & 2 by CNN... ;)
