There are countless war films in the course of the century have been, but these seem to be above the rest. This list, when adjusted for films with more action rather than emotional stories (Schindler’s List).
10th Braveheart: We will never forget the cry of “freedom” at the end of the film. Mel Gibson gives one of his best performances as the freedom struggle against the Scots, the Scottish uprising against the British in 1298 heads. Their battles are so many unforgettable lines and feel like you did in the action taken.
9th 300: This stunning film directed by Zach Snyder is one of the most memorable war films of the last five years. It will take you to the path in front of 300 Spartans against one million Persians in the Battle of Thermopylae. King Leonidas Xerxes looks (the main character to present), but Leonidas is to lose at the death, before struggling to a foreign king. Superb picture next to the amazing choreography, filmed entirely on a green background.
8th Enemy at the Gates is one of the best sniper film is a story and an exception. The main characters are loosely based on events. There are two Russian snipers against the best German sniper. The Russian sniper Vassili Zaitsev key is played by Jew Law. His German counterpart, Major King is played by Ed Harris. It is an intense cat and mouse where you never quite sure where the detours hidden Nazi. Hunting sniper during the Battle of Stalingrad, where the battle rages.
7th Kingdom of Heaven: Set in medieval times, the film is the story of a young man in the middle of the battles crusade to Jerusalem. This happens just before Richard the Lionheart starts in his last crusade. It has Saladin, in which it has done for some incredible battles. It is an epic final battle that everyone should watch. The special effects and siege engines are spectacular in this film. One of the battles of the siege realistic deadline.
6th Gettysburg: The bloodiest battle on American soil, thousands of Gettysburg re-enact foot on the ground true that the armed forces and the Army of Northern Virginia fought. It shows the struggle of three days which was a turning point in the Civil War, is shown from the perspective of both sides, highlighting the struggle for Little Round Top and Pickett’s Charge. More focus on the relationship between Lee and Longstreet, because they have different opinions strategic Armistead fighting on the side of his old friend Hancock and Chamberlain brothers.
5th The Last Samurai: A journey of a man who trains soldiers for the United States and its new ally, Japan is found in the enemy camp. When he learns the ways of the samurai, he finds and lasting peace between them. A conflict arises where a distinction between his people and the old imperial regime and the Japanese samurai who choose to be deleted. This film is amazingly choreographed fights, and many Samurai Bokken (wooden sword) for training and Kitana swinging action. It is set at the end of the Tokugawa era to the beginning of the Meiji era. Actors Tom Cruise and Ken Watanabe.
4th Full Metal Jacket: A Dark Comedy / war film in the Vietnam war is. With many memorable characters as Pvt. Jenkins, Pvt. Cowboy, Animal Mother, Pvt. Pyle, Eight Ball and R. Lee Ermey as none other than gny. Sgt Hartman. With real experience with Ermey as Gunnery Sergeant Boot Camp scenes to look very lifelike. Stanley Kubrick made a film of black soldiers who are under great stress and how they deal with it.
3rd Letters from Iwo Jima: Clint Eastwood, who also directed the American side for the first time in “Flags of Our Fathers”. It is shocking, this film was impressive and it is better to act thanks to Ken Watanabe. Watanabe played General Kuribayashi and offers an excellent performance of honor and courage under fire. Obviously this story is the battle of Iwo Jima through the eyes of the Japanese. It is still strange to think that our enemies strive both to our military actions.
2nd Patton: It was never so bold, brash, Fired Up General George S. Patton. It is the film portrays that Patton and his glorious victories and setbacks. It gives us to understand a bit what the great commander, as was and how he thought. The film begins with Patton’s career in North Africa and progresses through the invasion of Germany and the fall of the Third Reich. The film can be a bit too long (3:00 2.1 I think), but it’s worth seeing if you have time. Curiously, George C. Scott playing Patton, I find the name of equality is random, weird and funny.
1st Saving Private Ryan: Set if the D-Day invasion in Normandy. This story of Spielberg tells a fascinating story of a squad of Army Rangers, the Private Ryan, whose three brothers were killed are made. They are the salvation for him to go home, while his mother can find a comfort. Captain Miller (Tom Hanks) leads this team and they fight in several battles MG nests attacking tanks, this film all the war you could fit into two hours film. The famous Omaha Beach scene is so life like you feel like you to meet for the duck.
