Zulu! \:D/

Actually, I don't really remember what happens in that one. :-k


Saving Private Ryan I like. (Except for the language.)

I haven't really seen the whole thing of any war movie (unless Braveheart counts) so I'll just pick my favourites of what I saw.

In this order:

Behind Enemy Lines
We Were Soldiers
Tears Of The Sun

^ I forgot about those.


Tears of the Sun has the quote in my siggy in it. \:D/

*Points to sig*

And the user Black Hawk just reminded me of Black Hawk Down.

The Patriot
*sigh* Such an awesome movie! I love Mel Gibson!

And I have to admit... I liked the Pearl Harbor movie. (Except for the one scene which I always skip.) :anxious:

Another one I like is 1,000 Men and a Baby. But that one doesn't show much of the war, really.

I've really enjoyed The Patriot, and parts of Black Hawk Down

Does Star Wars count? LOTR? No? Okay.... um... how about Gladiator? The music was sooooo pretty in that movie, and I love the ending... it's better if you skip over some of the more gory scenes, for the most part.

If none of those count, I guess Saving Private Ryan is the only real war movie I've actually seen. War movies bore me.

The first one that comes to mind is The Patriot. I liked how it gave you a glimpse of a time period you don't often see in movies. It was authentically portrayed and exciting and ...patriotic. And of course there's Mel Gibson who's awesome...

Pearl Harbor and The Great Raid are two good movies... I know there are more, I just can't think of any right now. I loved the great raid because my dad said that his father was stationed on that island for a little while. So it was really cool to watch!
