This is a topic we could debate for days. There have been so many good war movies made, that narrowing it down to just five is a travesty. However, we must press on.
Personally, the Vietnam War movies intrigue me more than any other war. The Vietnam War was so controversial, and the movies that have been made out of it are all really good.
Anywho, one and only one rule for this list: The Movies you put on your list have to be movies that are based on a real, actual War. So all the 'Behind Enemy Lines' out there do not count.
My List:
1. Schindler's List (WWII)
2. The Deer Hunter (Vietnam)
3. Full Metal Jacket (Vietnam)
4. Platoon (Vietnam)
5. The Bridge On The River Kwai (WWII)
One's that all could easily tie for 6th Place: Glory, Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down, The Patriot, Apocolypse Now, All Quiet on the Western Front, Enemy at the Gates, Patton, Good Morning Vietnam.
