You mean The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly? Takes place during the Civil War but not a war movie. Great movie though.

nar it was world war two, and at the end of it they ally with a german tank commander and they split the amount of gold with him, because he was guarding the bank with a tiger tank and blowing everything up ahh i cant think of the name of it!!!

what war movie was the one with clint eastwood in it and they were chazing that huge amount of gold?? thats a classic.

i reckon saving private ryan and enemy at the gates are some of the best.

Absolutely. Thank you for saving me the time to type exactly what I had to say.

full metal jacket was an awsome movie.

"how high are you son!?"

"5ft 6 sir"

"5ft 6?? i didnt know they stacked piles of shit that high!"

hahha

Not a serious-war movie, but a classic comedy none-the-less. The boot camp is definetly what defines the movie though.

Also would like to add that Das Boot is a great movie, for those who managed to watch all 5+ hours of it.

PS: If anyone ever watched BeerFest (by Broken Lizard), you actually see a reference to Das Boot in there. When the Germans are spying on the guys from a submarine, they get into an argument. Wolfgang Petersen apologizes and admits he's short-tempered because he had a bad experience in a submarine before. Just thought I'd share as I realized that when I watched it myself. :p

Das Boot and it's not a "soldier" war movie, but Hope and Glory.

Das Boot is my favorite movie period. They actually built a uboat for the film, and filmed inside it. The director also forbade the actors from spending time outside so they would get pale and pasty just like a real uboat crew.

Patton and Enemy at the gates are pretty good as well.

Great movie but it is notoriously unrealistic in its depiction of Vietnam.

Oh I know it's not all that realistic, but it's a fantastic movie. Right up there with Platoon for my favorite 2 war flicks of all time.
