   Two movies come to my mind immediately:

   1. The Thin Red Line – Probably one of the most under-rated war movies of all time.

   2. Born on the 4th of July – Nothing to say. The name says it all.

   Some more of mine

   Gettysburg-Epic recreation of the Battle
   Guns of Navaronne-Pulp fiction at its best
   Operation Daybreak-Very underrated movie about assasination of Heinrich Himmler
   Longest Day- To me the best recreation of the Normandy landings.
   Von Ryan’s Express-Fantastic act by Frank Sinatra as an allied POW, who undertakes a daring escape act.
   Tora, Tora, Tora- The Best movie on Pearl Harbor IMO. Just brilliant

   Flags of Our Fathers-Clint Eastwood’s excellent depiction of the tale behind that famous photo of Iwo Jima
   Where Eagles Dare- Well this was the movie, that actually got me hooked on to war movies, and though its a cheesy masala flick,it still remains my eternal favorite.
   Stalingrad-Fabulous depiction of Battle of Stalingrad from German-Russian view point
   The Eagle Has Landed-One of the rare war movies, where you actually want the Nazis to win.
   Night of the Generals-Murder mystery set in Nazi occupied Warsaw.
