Poll > What's the greatest war movie of all time?

<strong>-Operation Pacific<br>-In Harm's Way<br>-Kelly's Heroes<br>-Enemy at the Gates<br>-The Devil's Brigade<br><br></strong>

Band of Brothers, was a series, but it would be near the top. Hurt Locker was a great war movie, and it's a true account of what goes on.

Wow... so many greats have been named. I'll stir the pot by adding a few more:<br><br>French/Indian War: <u>Last of the Mohicans</u>(1992), with honorable mention to <u>Northwest Passage</u> (1940, starring Spencer Tracy)<br><br>WWI: <u>Lawrence of Arabia</u> (1962)<br><br>WWII: <u>Battleground</u> (1949, starring Van Johnson and James Whitmore), <u>Das Boot</u> (1981)<br><br>Korea: <u>Pork Chop Hill</u> (1959, starring Gregory Peck)<br><br>And kudos to the posters who mentioned <u>Taking Chance</u> and <u>The Best Years of our Lives</u>.

Wow... so many great movies have been named... a consensus will never be reached on this one, methinks!

Also another one that wasnt mentioned yet,<br><br>
Tuskegee Airmen

And going back, Sergeant York (never liked Gary Cooper except in this)

I've seen THE GREAT ESCAPE so many times that that was an easy choice for me. Another boyhood fav was WHERE EAGLES DARE with all that Yakima Canut second unit work for the finale. Film snobs favs include GRAND ILLUSION and a Kubrick film called PATHS OF GLORY. The best Hitler in the bunker flick is a recent film called DOWNFALL.

This caught my eye enough to make me finally break my post silence........."A bridge too far" followed very closely by the longest day and big red 1<br><br>see ya in another 2 or 3 years

<strong><em><font size="5">Here's a couple more.<br>Hamburger hill<br>Boys in company C<br>Hurt Locker<br>Jarhead<br></font></em></strong>

Bridge Over The River Kwai........I still whistle that tune.
