I'm going for a left field choice of Kelly's Heroes,simply because it's the one war film I have watched and enjoyed the most and will continue to do so.
Inglorious Basterds would be my runner-up.
EV's are the Devils matchbox.

As of now and subject to change. Saving private Ryan. Black Hawk down. 9th Company Zulu and for cowboy bank heist action ww2 style, Kelly's Hero's. But this really does change based off my mood. As so many of those older ww2 are really really good. Like To Hell and Back. A Bridge to Far. Longest Day. Less super duper but well worth a watch. Battle of the Bulge Dirty Dozen Oh forgot Midway in there. Battle of the Bulge Bunch of non-English ones over the years that I just do not remember the names. Oh forgot the Platoon... And others.. Geee. That ww2 pretty much propaganda film.... Wake. They had everyone die.. They did not. Ended up in Japan as POW's. But since made in ww2 they did no know that. Crap....forgot Go for Broke! I really do like that one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d96hP7HiQFcOH boy big list.

Never even heard of it. When did it come out and which war was it set in? Edit: Never mind. I didn't realize that was the full title of the Mel Gibson Vietnam film.

My 'Waiting for Clod' thread: http://tinyurl.com/bqxc9eeAlways take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.Elie Wiesel. Romanian born Jewish writer, professor, political activist, Nobel Laureate, Holocaust survivor. 1928 - 2016. Indeed the safest road to Hell is the gradual one - the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. C.S. Lewis, 1898 - 1963.

Flight of the Intruder - well, I liked it anyway
Memphis Belle
Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty. This is known as "bad luck.” -Robert Heinlein
