The 3 best war movies ever

[Walt's Dream]

Not a big screen movie, but...
Band of Brothers

 

[Cogswel_Cogs]

MY favorites probably not best

Gunga Din
Braveheart
Apocalypse Now

 

[ncc1701]

Lots of Glory fans, but no Gettysburg? It tops my list.

They Shall Not Grow Old
Saving Private Ryan

Another Gettysburg fan here. The others are The Longest Day & Braveheart ( despite any historical inaacuracies)

 

[Hikergirl]

Tropic Thunder
Forrest Gump
Hair

 

[chickapin parterre]

Not a big screen movie, but...
Band of Brothers

yep.....people we actually knew and taught history in our schools

 

[lovesmurfs]

Dunkirk
1917
The Hurt Locker

I'll also add The Fighting Sullivans, not so much for the movie itself, but for the effects of war on a family.
