First title that came to my head was Shawshank Redemption.

Such an incredible movie with excellent performances by all involved. But then I noticed the word war and I'd be torn between Saving Private Ryan and Full Metal Jacket.

Why isn't "Apocalypse Now" on this list?

I was thinking of putting that one on, but i guess i didnt,

we should have more options than 10 polls.

I remember Hamburger Hill..but I still thought Saving Private Ryan was still a pretty great movie, loved it.

Is Hamburger Hill the movie where they (the US soldiers) are being shot at by enemy soldiers who are hiding under white wooden houses or am I thinking of a different movie?

well, entertainment wise, its saving private ryan.
i think filmmaking wise, its bewteen SPR and letters from Iwo Jima.
FMJ is also close.

as far as movies about war (not rly war movies), schindler's list and the counterfeiters are really good.

My Favourite War movies are Saving Private Ryan (obviously) and Platoon.

If you're a fan of Saving private Ryan, i HIGHLY suggest you watch Band of Brothers, Potentially the best Mini-Series EVER made.

This list is left wanting.

Behind Enemy Lines
Tears of the Sun
Apocolypse Now
Deer Hunter
^where are they?

But of what's up there, Blackhawk Down is definately my pick. That movie was fantastic.
