We Were Soldiers Once was one of my favorite. Saving Private Ryan is a great one too. I watched Midway the past 2 days and thought it was pretty good. Enemy at the Gates. All Quiet on the Western Front.... and I’m sure there’s several more that I’m forgetting but the first 2 I mentioned are some of my favorites. Hacksaw Ridge, Fury, Inglorious Bastetds, etc were good movies but I classify them in a different category than a true war movie.

The Lost Battalion, a WW1 story with Rick Schroeder was good too.

I always have a hard time pinning down favorites. One that I really like that never gets much attention is "A Midnight Clear".

I watch the original “Midway” anytime they show it on television, liked “Enemy at the Gates” and sorry ‘flave, I also really like “We Were Soldiers”! And one nobody mentioned, “Sink the Bismarck”.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Too many newish war movies to count that are great.
Dunkirk really pissed me off. Historically correct or not, something like 400k troops retreating?! I call that an army. Where were the NCOs with spines? If half of those men would have turned around and collected 1 set of German ears it would have changed the war. Pathetic.
How about "the bug red one" for a golden oldie?

The original Red Dawn has always been a favorite of mine, and I agree with most of the others, but one that I have always really liked is "In Harms Way" with John Wayne and I believe Patricia Neil.
