Its best war movies, not action, not best actors, not best snipers OMFDSX.
Yeah its not totally accurate, why you ask? Because everyone can vote, just like a DEMOCRACY. If you feel unjust, vote. Just like a real election people bitch about nothing getting done yet they have no voice. STFU and vote.

Also, i just saw Dr. Strangelove for the first time tonight to see what the fuss was about. Simply amazing satirical movie. Everyone should go rent it for a good laugh yet a great message. (SORRY NO SNIPUZZZ SCENES)

i agree... i just have a beef with movies like SPR being on there, when classics like the Longest Day, and Bridge on the Rive Kwai are left out, and amzing films like platoon and FMJ rate lower thanblockbusters, Strangelove is phenomenal, one of Kubricks best, it;s just clear to me that list voted on by the masses will represent the generic...

Look whats number 1 lmao...

no. 1 should be there ... watching a hour and half of battle doesnt make a good war movie. not sure about number 2 tho. while it is a pretty leet movie i dont think i would rate it number 2.

I think they approached this all wrong. They didn't ask here are 150 movies and pick the best. They are all just movies that had something about war/horror and was rated based on the movie itself. I think many of the movies had multiple genre's and were accidently shoved in there.
