(even a soppy love story one ) ← My list at the moment would be; For graphic viewing; Band of Brothers Saving Private Ryan When Trumpets Fade Thin Red Line [Maybe] Stalingrad [Maybe] Classics would be; A Bridge Too Far The Longest Day The Battle of Britain The Battle of The Bulge Dunkirk The Great Escape Patton: Lust For Glory The Dambusters 633 Squadron Sink the Bismark The Cruel Sea The Telemark Raid Das Boot Rommel [Played by James Mason] The Man who Never Was He who Dares [Dirk Bogard plays an SAS officer in the Med'] For Entertainment; Kelly's Heroes The Dirty Dozen There's also a ton of DVD documentaries out there now.

Arms Posted November 7, 2004 Author Share Posted November 7, 2004 Wasnt Full Metal Jacket a anti war film? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Splash Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Wasnt Full Metal Jacket a anti war film? ← No, it was a musical . I suppose most war films, whether made to be or not are anti war. It depends how you interpret them. Ooooooo.....big statement.......bit political DS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unseen_Warrior Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Full Metal Jacket was THE greatest war movie of all time. it was not anti war Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arms Posted November 14, 2004 Author Share Posted November 14, 2004 Stanley Kubrick's definitive anti-Vietnam War film Full Metal Jacket tried to shock viewers with the US Marine Corps' training regime, which eventually leads one recruit to murder and suicide.

Unseen_Warrior Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 I stand corrected, but it is still THE best action/war/whatever movie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Pearl Harbor was good... if you dont mind fastforwarding through most of it. Band of Brothers is the greatest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
