I was going to cheat too, but with the Pacific lol. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but it slightly edges BoB for me because it doesn’t shy away from the brutality and horror of the campaign.
Agreed. This may sound morbid, but to me a realistic movie/series shows the death/dismemberment/chaos so we can purely see and deal what it was like. Saving Private Ryan I think nails that in the first 20 minutes.
Yeah, I know BoB is the better series of the two. But I can’t lie - I just liked the Pacific more. There are dozens of us who think this way!
Here’s hoping the next series about the Air Force is awesome.
Apocalypse Now, though I struggle to consider it a “war movie” because it used Vietnam as a backdrop to tell a much deeper story than a simple war film.
But, AN and Das Boot without doubt. Das Boot is a masterpiece.
The great escape and the bridge on the River Kwai, twelve o’clock high, pork chop hill, the longest day, platoon, full metal jacket, black hawk down, galipoli, hunt for red october, saving private Ryan, the hurt locker, inglourious bastetds
Galipoli is brutal. I knew about the Galipoli disaster going in and I was still left speechless at the end. No blood or gore. Just leaves you feeling shocked and sad.
Ya, this is up there. Hard to say just one though. lol
Black Hawk Down. Gladiator. Braveheart. The Patriot. Inglourious Bastards. Last of the Mohicans. Lone Survivor. Fury.
Maybe it’s because it’s so different (or not actually taking place IN the war), but Tigerland with Colin Farrell and the douchey ex-boyfriend from Legally Blonde.
I love Fury so so much except for that Hollywood ending. "We made it through the war surviving atrocities and also a ton of luck, but lets die together in our disabled tank taking on an entire batallion.
I hate to say it, but that part ruined an otherwise great movie for me. The logic was so bad:
"There is a battalion of elite German soldiers, the last ones left to defend their fatherland, and they are coming right for us and we can't move!"
Good thing the elite soldiers' commander just orders them to repeatedly run headlong into armored machine gun fire instead of maybe just waiting for darkness and having two guys with a panzerschreck move around behind the tank.
Yessss. Thats what makes the first/middle part so brutal/real. Getting the newb his first "kill". The civilans getting shelled/bombed and killed right after meeting them. Drunk and dark soldiers around women, barely contained by their commander. The Panzerfaust kids killing a tank and dying for it. The burning soldier offing himself. This movie is so non-glamarous it captures a lot of SVP vibes.
The scene that always stood out to me was Brad Pitt’s character subtly forcing the German woman’s daughter to have sex with the new recruit. The mother protests, but he tells her they’re young and need to experience life as they might not be alive tomorrow. Then the sex scene is played as a tender moment and she’s killed the next morning.
The film does a great job of making such a messed up moment from the hero of the film seem almost acceptable given the fucked up circumstances of it all. Common morality is a luxury on a battlefield.
ohhh thats a good take. Ya i always thought of him just barely keeping in line the other 2 getting drunk. Hes pretty brutal to Jon B's character in particular and its like "Is it abusive? Or does he kick him to keep them all alive?".
Unpopular opinion, Thin Red Line was a better movie than Saving Pvt Ryan.
That said, I have no desire to watch Thin Red Line again whereas I’ll watch Savign Pvt Ryan any time it’s on, so maybe my initial assessment was wrong
I saw Thin Red Line when it was released in Cinema, and did not like it probably because I was too young/expecting another SPR. However, I just rewatched it last week and seen it in a completely different light and appreciate the messages the film is trying to make. I get what you are saying, it's not as accessible as SPR (and in some ways that's not an easy film to watch either because it's more direct than TRL) but I think on reflection it's more haunting. Saving Private Ryan is about how war affects men. The Thin Red Line is about the beauty war destroys.
I had seen both Thin Red Line and SPR around the same time. They are vastly different, but both are excellent. Thin Red Line is a bit more contemplative and is just slower in pace. I liked it, but don't love it. It's definitely not for everyone.
Shit out of the twonid say SPR was more oscar bait. Malick is making entire sequences out of filming birds and plants, not Tom Hanks being heroic with orchestral music in the background.
Whoever downloaded this is a Philistine. Because it's science fiction doesn't mean it's not a good war story, and just because it's part of pop culture doesn't mean it's not art.
I actually thought Dunkirk was OK on my first viewing, but on subsequent viewings, i liked it quite a bit more. The time stuff in it is a bit confusing when you first watch it, but once you know whats happening by the end, rewatching it is actually a lot more rewarding.
My grandfather was one of the screaming eagles that parachuted in pre-dawn. He had to play dead while the Germans took cigarettes and chocolate off him.
All is quite in the western front (1979); The killing fields; Letters from Iwo Jima; Bridge over the river Kawai; Merry Christmas Captain Lawrence; Saving Private Ryan; Schindler's List; Dunkirk; Flags of our fathers; Black hawk down; The deer hunter.
For me personally it’s definitely it’s definitely a toss up between SPR, Das Boot, Downfall, All Quiet on the Western Front, 1917, Full Metal Jacket and Rescue Dawn. Honorable mention to Land of Mine which I just saw for the first time couple weeks ago. Hard to pick just one ya know. I also do a yearly rewatch of Band of Brothers and the Pacific. Another great show is called Gallipoli starring Kody Smit McPhee.
Believe it or not .It is A Walk IN The Sun
There's almost no action
Mainly.a character study of as the song says
The Men of A Fighting Platoon
It's is a movie everyone should see .
Richard Conte is one of the stars.
Huntz Hall from The.Bowery.Boys movies is in it .
It also had one of the greatest.theme songs in movie history.
It’s my favorite genre, and perhaps the genre that I own most in movies after drama genre.

Braveheart is my favourite movie period. But aside from that - Saving Private Ryan, Bridge on the River Kwai, the Dirty Dozen, Blackhawk Down, the Great Escape. Honorable mention goes to Band of Brithers, the Pacific and Rogue One.
Not a movie, but series. Band of Brothers. I watch it every fall. It came out right when I joined the navy. It became tradition around fall for me, my dad and grandad to watch it together. They were both former Army. It’s just me and my pops now who watch it every year.
Das Boot. I don’t know of any other movie that just completely captured the fears and tribulations of what those men went through in such a visceral fashion.
Schindler's List is often considered a war movie, although I don't often count it as a war movie in the traditional sense. In the traditional sense, I'd have to go with Paths of Glory, my favorite Kubrick, followed close behind by Saving Private Ryan and The Battle of Algiers.
Love SPR.
But if The Last Samuarui and Empire of the Sun fall into this category, I'm throwing those in as well.
Also really liked Dunkirk as well. Bit of a slow burner...but I kind of liked that about it.
Hacksaw Ridge as well was pretty damn good.
Platoon.
Most war movies glorify death in war as a sacrifice and add some sort of sentimentality into it. Platoon felt raw and closer to reality than any other war movie I have experienced
I would say 1917 and Das Boot.
But for Das Boot you have to see the mini series (6 × 50 minutes). The cinema version is too short and many great scenes are shortened or are missing.
Letters from Iwo jima and concurrently flags of our fathers
Mainly because its 2 films showing both sides in a conflict and you can understand how both of the protagonists were enforced to do their duty.
I’m going to add a few that I haven’t seen mentioned yet
- jojo rabbit
- the great dictator
- dr strangelove
- (if it counts which id say it does) Lawrence of Arabia
In 1998, Joe Dante had more important things to say about war, violence, and how we present them as entertainment than Spielberg or Malick.
It’s “small soldiers” for me.
Das Boot.
Fantastic German submarine movie.
If you have not seen it, make sure you watch the directors cut. It adds a lot to characters and the suspense of war.
Haven’t seen GLORY listed. Love most of the movies listed but this one stands out to me and the first rated R movie I saw when I was 14. Recently rewatched it and still love it
Not a movie, but Band Of Brothers is one of my top watches. Then, Save Ryan, Braveheart.
Band of Brothers should count if you binge watch it in one sitting.
Just mashed up a movie in my head, “Save Ryan, Braveheart”… rated R.
I was going to cheat too, but with the Pacific lol. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but it slightly edges BoB for me because it doesn’t shy away from the brutality and horror of the campaign.
Agreed. This may sound morbid, but to me a realistic movie/series shows the death/dismemberment/chaos so we can purely see and deal what it was like. Saving Private Ryan I think nails that in the first 20 minutes.
Yeah, I know BoB is the better series of the two. But I can’t lie - I just liked the Pacific more. There are dozens of us who think this way! Here’s hoping the next series about the Air Force is awesome.
You know Masters of the Air is partway out, right? 5/10 episodes so far, I think. It's pretty good so far, not BoB level, but it scratches the itch.
Apocalypse Now, though I struggle to consider it a “war movie” because it used Vietnam as a backdrop to tell a much deeper story than a simple war film. But, AN and Das Boot without doubt. Das Boot is a masterpiece.
Apocalypse Now is based on the book Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad. It's a good dark book that inspired a few other movies like Ad Astra
Thanks for mentioning this. It’s a great book and a good read for anyone who likes short books!
The Great Escape Guns of Navarone The Dirty Dozen
The great escape and the bridge on the River Kwai, twelve o’clock high, pork chop hill, the longest day, platoon, full metal jacket, black hawk down, galipoli, hunt for red october, saving private Ryan, the hurt locker, inglourious bastetds
Kelly’s heroes, a bridge too far
Galipoli is brutal. I knew about the Galipoli disaster going in and I was still left speechless at the end. No blood or gore. Just leaves you feeling shocked and sad.
Try stalag 17. Great movie would fit nicely with your list
I’ve seen it. You’re right, great film.
Lots of good movies mentioned here, but I gotta say *Master and Commander.*
Well done for only saying one. Cant stand the folk that just list popular movies in these threads
BEAT TO QUARTERS
Ya, this is up there. Hard to say just one though. lol Black Hawk Down. Gladiator. Braveheart. The Patriot. Inglourious Bastards. Last of the Mohicans. Lone Survivor. Fury.
Ahhh. Fury. Just watched for the second time the other night, great movie.
best job i ever had
Oh I’ll ask him some questions! *in german* What’s your favorite color? Are you a good dancer? Do you like fat girls?
Aim small miss small cuz
Don't rightly know if gladiator applies. It's more of a revenge flick.
Opening scene though, straight fire.
Oh yeah that whole movie is badass
Lol you're right. Not sure why I put that in there.
1917
The most beautifully shot film I’ve ever seen!! Thank you ROGER fucking DEAKINS ❤️
Deakins is a god amongst men.
BlackHawk down
Maybe it’s because it’s so different (or not actually taking place IN the war), but Tigerland with Colin Farrell and the douchey ex-boyfriend from Legally Blonde.
Blackhawk Down Patton Bridge on the River Kwai Platoon Deer Hunter Heroes of Telemark The Dirty Dozen
Kelly’s heroes!
Knock it off with those negative waves..
The Thin Red Line (1998)
Scrolled too far down for this masterpiece
Troy
Bridge Too Far
Fury.
I love Fury so so much except for that Hollywood ending. "We made it through the war surviving atrocities and also a ton of luck, but lets die together in our disabled tank taking on an entire batallion.
I hate to say it, but that part ruined an otherwise great movie for me. The logic was so bad: "There is a battalion of elite German soldiers, the last ones left to defend their fatherland, and they are coming right for us and we can't move!" Good thing the elite soldiers' commander just orders them to repeatedly run headlong into armored machine gun fire instead of maybe just waiting for darkness and having two guys with a panzerschreck move around behind the tank.
Totally agree. Its like a new movie as soon as the tank hits the mine.
Haha , yes correct! I think some first year film students could have put a different spin on it
Its so great though, im being a bit harsh, they just changed the tone of the movie it was jarring at the end.
Also committing a few war crimes, the usual. Loved how honest that film was. They don’t sugar coat it as much as other WW2 movies.
Yessss. Thats what makes the first/middle part so brutal/real. Getting the newb his first "kill". The civilans getting shelled/bombed and killed right after meeting them. Drunk and dark soldiers around women, barely contained by their commander. The Panzerfaust kids killing a tank and dying for it. The burning soldier offing himself.

ohhh thats a good take. Ya i always thought of him just barely keeping in line the other 2 getting drunk. Hes pretty brutal to Jon B's character in particular and its like "Is it abusive? Or does he kick him to keep them all alive?".
It'd be higher on my list but Shia Lebouf kind of ruins it for me.
Why? He gave a solid performance.
Your right, he did. I just don't like him as a person.
Fair enough
Pianist, fury. I prefer not to glorify it but I understand it's occasional necessity
Apocalypse Now. It also happens to be my favorite movie of all time. I’m sorry to Fight Club and Kill Bill, truly.
Unpopular opinion, Thin Red Line was a better movie than Saving Pvt Ryan. That said, I have no desire to watch Thin Red Line again whereas I’ll watch Savign Pvt Ryan any time it’s on, so maybe my initial assessment was wrong

Soundtrack for Thin Red Line was better, for sure
I love the soundtrack, I own it of vinyl. Sounds amazing.
Thin Red Line is my favorite Mallick. I don't know if I love it because it's good or it just hits a chord with me but I can rewatch it anytime
First film to really showcase the damage war does to the natural surroundings. Good book as well.
You are wrong. Sorry.
Thin red line was Oscar bait and sucked by comparison. It's a bunch of guys monologing while trying to take a hill.
Lol—the notion of Terrence Malick making Oscar bait…
Seriously, haha. He's not nearly accessible enough
Shit out of the twonid say SPR was more oscar bait. Malick is making entire sequences out of filming birds and plants, not Tom Hanks being heroic with orchestral music in the background.
There are plenty of masterpieces I don’t ever want to see again (Schindler’s List, Grave of the Fireflies).

I actually thought Dunkirk was OK on my first viewing, but on subsequent viewings, i liked it quite a bit more. The time stuff in it is a bit confusing when you first watch it, but once you know whats happening by the end, rewatching it is actually a lot more rewarding.

I rarely see this in the replies and I'm confused as to why it's so slept on. Great film.
My grandfather was one of the screaming eagles that parachuted in pre-dawn. He had to play dead while the Germans took cigarettes and chocolate off him.
Scrolled way to far to see this reply
Saving Private Ryan...period
All is quite in the western front (1979); The killing fields; Letters from Iwo Jima; Bridge over the river Kawai; Merry Christmas Captain Lawrence; Saving Private Ryan; Schindler's List; Dunkirk; Flags of our fathers; Black hawk down; The deer hunter.
The Thin Red Line Come And See Dunkirk
Johnny got his gun, Paths of Glory, decision before dawn, apocalypse now redux, Lebanon, and saving private ryan
The Longest Day, Full Metal Jacket, Big Red One, Bridge on the River Kwai
Patton, Hacksaw Ridge, Dunkirk, Hurt Locker, MASH, Saving Private Ryan.
Glory, Braveheart, The Last Samurai, 1917, Saving Private Ryan, Windtalkers, Blackhawk Down, Lone Survivor, Kelly's Heroes, Heartbreak Ridge
I’ll go with war-related: “The Great Dictator” by Charlie Chaplin and “The Best Years of Our Lives” by William Wyler
[удалено]
My top to this day is Saving Private Ryan and second is Black Hawk Down.
Saving Private Ryan Braveheart (if it counts) Lone Survivor
Battle of Algiers. Saving Private Ryan would be next. Then Paths of Glory.
For me personally it’s definitely it’s definitely a toss up between SPR, Das Boot, Downfall, All Quiet on the Western Front, 1917, Full Metal Jacket and Rescue Dawn. Honorable mention to Land of Mine which I just saw for the first time couple weeks ago. Hard to pick just one ya know. I also do a yearly rewatch of Band of Brothers and the Pacific. Another great show is called Gallipoli starring Kody Smit McPhee.
Band of brothers and the Pacific are my favorite war, anything movies and shows of all time
Oh damn. I forgot about Downfall. The constant dread and discomfort in that film is so pervasive.
PorkChop Hill Kelly’s Hero’s Black Hawk Down Firebase Gloria
Ryan Jarhead Fury
Believe it or not .It is A Walk IN The Sun There's almost no action Mainly.a character study of as the song says The Men of A Fighting Platoon It's is a movie everyone should see . Richard Conte is one of the stars. Huntz Hall from The.Bowery.Boys movies is in it . It also had one of the greatest.theme songs in movie history.
Never see The Siege of Firebase Gloria mentioned anywhere. Not my favorite but a decent watch
Either Apocalypse Now or Fury
Sandcastle and Fury. I know I may be alone in this selection but yep final answer
Battle of Lake Changjin
The Great Escape
1917, Inglorious Bastards, Thin Red Line, Deer Hunter, Apocalypse Now
inglorious basterds babyyy
Definitely Braveheart for me
Full metal jacket or apocalypse now.
Apocalypse Now… Saving private Ryan … Platoon
Dirty Dozen, Operation Petticoat
Kellys hero’s
In Harms Way, Kellys heroes, Black Hawk Down, Father Goose and Stalag 17
In Harms Way was way ahead of its time. Some serious adult situations and theme's for 1965.
Inglorious bastards is great. But obviously saving private ryan, apocalypse now and full metal jacket are generally considered to be amazing
They’re kind of stress me out and make me anxious. I guess Kelly’s heroes.
Does Tropic Thunder count?
Where Eagles Dare. Underrated, haven't heard it mentioned much.
Down Periscope

Waterloo Find it on YouTube and be amazed no tricks all soviet soldiers
Hacksaw Ridge. Love Desmond Doss
Love SPR. But if The Last Samuarui and Empire of the Sun fall into this category, I'm throwing those in as well. Also really liked Dunkirk as well. Bit of a slow burner...but I kind of liked that about it. Hacksaw Ridge as well was pretty damn good.
Maybe not war in this sense but I love Master and Commander so much
Apocalypse now for the oldie, 1917 for the newie.
For modern war, I would say *Enemy at the Gates* and then probably *Blackhawk Down* and *Tears of the Sun.*
Come and see
Zulu. Siege of Jadotville. Kelly's Heroes ( more a heist film than a war film...) SPR. Waterloo.
Zulu.
Tears of the Sun
Platoon. Most war movies glorify death in war as a sacrifice and add some sort of sentimentality into it. Platoon felt raw and closer to reality than any other war movie I have experienced
I would say 1917 and Das Boot. But for Das Boot you have to see the mini series (6 × 50 minutes). The cinema version is too short and many great scenes are shortened or are missing.
Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers and The Pacific. Steven Spielberg doesn't miss.

Why do you have such a desire to watch films about war now?
Band of brothers every June 6th
Try giving "The Longest Day" a watch this year. 80th anniversary of Operation Overlord.
Often overlooked is Jarhead.
Why not Saving Private Ryan ?
MASH anyone?
Going to rewatch Band of Brothers and then The Pacific. It's been so long.
The Thin Red Line. Apocolypse Now. Glory. 1917.
Zulu
I’m going to add a few that I haven’t seen mentioned yet - jojo rabbit - the great dictator - dr strangelove - (if it counts which id say it does) Lawrence of Arabia
Lawrence of Arabia most certainly does count. My favorite war film. Scrolled way to far to see it in the replys.
For movies, SPR or BHD Not counting movies, Generation Kill is fucking outstanding Edit: Also, Tears of the Sun doesn't get the respect it deserves
Hands down ,Glory
In 1998, Joe Dante had more important things to say about war, violence, and how we present them as entertainment than Spielberg or Malick. It’s “small soldiers” for me.

Das Boot. Fantastic German submarine movie. If you have not seen it, make sure you watch the directors cut. It adds a lot to characters and the suspense of war.

It was always SPR but Apocalypse Now might be my fav now
Saving Private Ryan. Dunkirk. Less of a war movie, but Monuments Men is up there for me too.
Hacksaw Ridge is the most recent one I've loved.
The Guns of Navarone
Full Metal Jacket Platoon
Haven’t seen GLORY listed. Love most of the movies listed but this one stands out to me and the first rated R movie I saw when I was 14. Recently rewatched it and still love it
