Band of Brothers
The Thin Red Line
When Trumpets Fade
Generation Kill
A Bridge to Far
Kelly Heroes
War movies being my favorite genre i could write a list as long as this thread but i picked the ones more well known.
Band of Brothers and Inglourious Basterds.
The patriotism in most war movies is so thick you could cut it with a knife, which kind of puts me off.
As Yahtzee said: "Patriotism is for twats."

Well that wasn't completely about the war in Viet-fucking-nam, but it was a great movie nonetheless.
