So I just watched saving private Ryan for the very first time (can you believe it?) And I was wondering if you knew of any other good war movies, preferably WW2 movies, they always seem to be the best, here are some war movies I've seen:
Saving private Ryan
Inglorious bastards
Full metal jacket
Black hawk down
Glory
The pianist (it pretty much counts)
Pearl Harbor
War horse
Lone survivor
The Patriot
That's all I can really remember right now, recommend flood.

Warhorse . Very war-ish

Gladiator is a awesome movie. Not very war based but is still great with action and fighting

"Flags of our Fathers" and "Letters From Iwo Jima" are both really good. And if you want to watch a strange fictional war movie then I recommend "The White Tiger" (Белый тигр).

3 RepliesEdited by RomanGladiator7: 9/8/2014 3:34:38 PMNot the typical 'war' movies (more like spy/espionage but they do have great suspense and action), but there are three good movies based on Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels: The Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, and Clear and Present Danger. Also The Sum of All Fears is decent, but not as good.

2 RepliesApocalypse Now. Haven't seen it, but it's inspired by heart of darkness. Not a film, but it's a game with a good story: Spec Ops: The Line.

1 ReplyPlatoon is a take on the Vietnam War, one of the few that most closely resembled how it was.

5 RepliesNot a movie but Band of Brothers is amazing. If you liked Saving Private Ryan you'll love Band of Brothers.

2 RepliesApocalypse Now, Behind Enemy Lines, Rules of Engagement, A Few Good Men. All good

6 RepliesI've never seen it, but you can try Valkyrie. That's a WWII movie, and it has Tom Cruise in it.

1 ReplyMore of a documentary, but Battle of Long Tan was really interesting to watch.
