Default War Movies - 05-31-2004, 07:44 PM

Hey, I'm looking for a couple of good war movies that I could look into buying. I own these ones on DVD so far:

Braveheart
We Were Soldiers
Saving Private Ryan
Enemy At The Gates
Black Hawk Down
Gladiator

These are basically the only war movies I've seen, so I hope to get some advice from you guys. Are there good war movies out there that I'm missing out on? (And by war I mean a lot of action involving soldiers or whatever, not crappy action flicks starring Ben Affleck.) I'm looking for a few that are kind along the same side as the ones I already own. The only movie I have in mind is The Patriot.

Any other suggestions?

Do yourself a favor and pick up "Band of Brothers" 1st. One of the best war flicks/series ever IMO.
