World War 2 Movies
 
So recently, I've gotten (back) into WW2 movies because I enjoy them. Are there any suggestions on ones I should see?
Also, if anyone here has seen Downfall I'd appreciate your thoughts on it, I really want to see that one.

Island in the Sky and Tora! Tora! Tora! are pretty good.

Tadao May 6th, 2008 09:02 PM

I heard Tora! was the worst thing Akira Kurosawa was apart of.

Stalingrad. sympathy for germans & flamethrower action!

50/50 on T!T!T!. it has Bruce Campbell though.

The Longest Day, Kelly's Heroes, The Great Escape, They Were Expendable, (NOT Sands of Iwo Jima, it's a dull war film at it's worst, every moviegoer and critic in the world is a liar) and, of course, Fantasy Island.

I like The Caine Mutiny,

KELLY'S HEROES

Where Eagles Dare

Aw shit, I forgot about that one, that one was awesome

The first Navarone flick was fun, too. And if you haven't seen the Dirty Dozen by now, you suck at life

I get the picture of Michael Caine as a pirate.

I pray for Ignoble Bastards, even if Q can't get his ideal lineup

"Inglorious Bastards", my bad

Pearl Harbor seemed like a decent movie trapped between to halves of a giant turd. does anyone sympathize for that crapper?

Hell in the Pacific

Cross of Iron is supposed to be pretty decent.

Das Boot

Since when was Bruce Campbell in Tora! Tora! Tora!.

Fathom Zero May 14th, 2008 07:30 PM

Man, Das Boot is a goddamn masterpiece.

he wasn't, he was in "torro. torro. torro!" which is a movie about a killer lawnmower not a ww2 movie :rolleyes

Kybo Ren May 14th, 2008 08:43 PM

ssshhhh!
I get off on making people watch long crappy movies to see their favorite actors.


Harrison Ford is in Ishtar. pass it on





but on the plus side I liked Flags of our Fathers/ Letters from Iwo Jima for the both side of same story aspect. sure there's some slow parts(Flags), but Robert Patrick does rock.

Battle Of Britain - amazing story, and the film is almost entirely historically accurate
