Saving private Ryan
Braveheart
Black hawk down
Apocalypse now.. forgot about this one
The patriot simply because of how great Jason Isaacs is (top 5 mobie villains imo).

I also don't consider 300 a war movie I consider it a comic movie

How is Gladiator a war movie but 300 isn't?

But you consider gladiator a war movie? Don't get me wrong, it's in my top 10 favorites but it's not a war movie.

We Were Soldiers

As much as I love Gladiator I don't know if I'd call it a "war" movie

Gladiator


I mean the first 10 minutes of the movie had a battle but the rest of it not so much.

Full Metal Jacket

300
Forrest Gump
The Last Samurai

very underrated movie.

I can't promise you that I will bring you all home alive. But this I swear, before you and before Almighty God, that when we go into battle, I will be the first to set foot on the field, and I will be the last to step off, and I will leave no one behind. Dead or alive, we will all come home together. So help me, God.

War Movies = Movies about war

so 300 count as does

1) Fellowship of the ring
2) The Two Towers
3) Return of the King
4) 300
5) Kingdom of Heaven

Guns are for pussies

If Band of Brothers were a movie, it'd be right there in the mix.
