best war movies - Blu-ray Forum

I would have to go with We were soldiers or Platoon for my favorite war movie. I think Apacolypse Now is great for it's time (1979) but it is way better then Shaving Ryan's Privates. I think everybody has the same opinion about Full Metal Jacket. Being that the 1st half is excellent while the second half is ok. Did you know that anthony michael hall turned down the role of private joker? How wierd would that have been?

Here's a list of war movies that are GREAT;

We were soldiers
Battle of Britain
Battle of the Bulge
A bridge to Far
A bride over the river Kwai
The eagle has landed
Platoon
Hamburger hill
Apocalypse now
MASH
Glory
Zulu

Missed a load, to early in the morning to think of blood and guts war movies.
