We Were Soldiers sucked IMO, but The Great Escape is an absolute classic. I never even saw Valkyrie.
I'm really surprised no one has pulled out Pearl Harbor yet...

Pretty sure you are joking on the Pearl Harbor so nice one, can't say it sucked btw on we were soldiers
I can dig not liking it, but it didn't suck

The scene on Ohama when the dude is looking for his arm, finds it and runs off is crazy.

Most powerful part of Omaha beach was the medic screaming "I stopped the bleeding!" And then the patient gets domed

Yeah WWS just didn't do it for me, and yes i'm clowning on Pearl Harbor. Kate Beckinsale, the most gorgeous woman on the face of the earth IMHO, couldn't even begin to save that movie.
Watching The Deer Hunter is such an emotional/timely investment, but it is great there's no doubt about that.

People liked Valkyrie? I usually like Cruz but wasn't a fan of that film, maybe because I knew the story of the botched assassination attempt going in.

Bridge on the river kwai is awesome and that song with a whistle is absolutely legendary.
Those guys defined resilience and toughness.

Pearl Harbor might have been the worst War Movie, ever.
Also my grandpa said SPR was full of donkey shit.

No argument on PH, but what did your granddad mean about SPR? (no flame, serial question)

I've always wanted to see a movie about the small destroyer task force that fought off Japan's attempt to stop the landings at the Phillipine's. Tiny little destroyer escorts going nose to nose with the biggest battleships ever to be constucted. It's one of the most heroic battles in US Naval history.
Hollywood could have made this movie and not put out pig s**t like "Battleship".
