Best War movies...
So, what's your favorite war movies? I like Saving Private Ryan of course, Hamburger Hill, Patton, and I guess Tora!Tora!Tora! would be some of my favorites.

1. Black Hawk Down
2. Full Metal jacket 3. Platoon 4. Hamburger Hill 5. Saving Private Ryan |
The Longest Day
A Bridge Too Far (since noone else wil mention them) |
Um the only war type movie I ever enjoyed was Apolcalypse Now. And I didn't even completely enjoy it.
Would you call Forrest Gump a type of war movie? |
All's Quiet on the Western Front
|
Cold Mountain also had alot to do with the Civil War...but I doubt that counts.

Longest Day
Battle of the bulge Platoon Apocalypse Now A Bridge too far Great Escape Hamburger Hill Thin Red Line Stalingrad Wind Talkers |
Grave of the Fireflies. Sure, it's an anime, but unlike most war movies, it focuses on the difficulties of surviving the war from the point of view of Japanese orphans. It's a really sad, touching film.
As for live action flicks, I enjoyed Full Metal Jacket immensely, though I thought it to be two different movies embedded into one, yet somehow works from a realistic perspective. |
Saving Private Ryan
|
I liked The Thin Red Line.
|
Full Metal Jacket is the best war movie ever.
Paths of Glory is also fucking amazing. |
1. Full Metal jacket
T-2. Platoon T-2. Apocalypse Now 3. Paths of Glory |
I've never come across Paths of Glory before, going to google it.
|
Hmm Kubrick, World War 1, examples made out of soldiers who won't take part in a suicidal attack might have to check that one out.
|
It's great, definitely watch it. First time I saw it, I was blown away.
|
Deer Hunter is also a phenominal movie.

Has anyone seen both versions of Apocalypse Now? Cus I saw the Redux...maybe that's why I didn't like certain parts.
|
Pretty much everything that has been mentioned plus:
The Dirty Dozen I love war movies but preferably WWII |
I thought Apocalypse Now was pretty fucking boring.
|
I forgot about We Were soldiers and Tigerland. :(
CHARLIE DON'T SURF! The redux has just got bits added in that weren't left in the original. Like when they steal the Colonel's (or whatever rank he is) surfboard. There's a bit where they're on the boat in the jungle hiding from a helicopter playing a recorded message from him wanting his board back. The other bit that's obvious is where they meet up with the playgirls a while after the USO show. |
Das Boot
The Great Escape A Bridge Too Far The Guns of Navarone Patton The Longest Day Those are all the ones I own.. Don't really feel like thinking of more during finals week lol. |
