In your opinion, what's the best war film? Don't say BLOOD AND GUTS!!! because they all have that. ;)

I like Saving Private Ryan, We were Soldiers, and Blawk Hawk Down. :D

I like them because they are all very realistic. :happy:

There is no best war film.

They all have unique qualities

The real question should be, how many have you seen ?

no, I like We were Soldiers because of the authenticity of the movie. It only had a few minor "unreal" stuff. and they actually spoke vietnamese correctly.
