[bhafc99]

Apocalypse Now

 

[Eggmundo]

Ice Cold in Alex
Saving Priavte Ryan
Waterloo

 

[Charles 'Charley' Charles]

Platoon

Struggled to leave that one out, is a great film.

Cross of Iron

What a fantatsic film, from a different perspective. The bit where the boy get's shot is one of those bits in cinema that sticks with you

 

[Juan Albion]

Always been into naval history, so:

1. Tora! Tora! Tora!
2. Midway
3. Sink the Bismarck

Honorable mentions:

4. Battle of the River Plate

 

[Hampden Park]

Stalag 17
Das Boot
Kelly's Heroes

And possibly Babe. At least I think that must count as a war film - the only time I watched it it made me so angry I wanted to go out and invade Poland straight afterwards.

why Poland ?
