Saving Private Ryan and Casualties of War are my two favorites, just extremely powerful movies that capture the hell of war.
Platoon- Love how intense it is and how it shows how much war screws with soldiers minds.
The Hurt Locker- Might be the most realistic of all these movies. Definitely deserved it's best picture win.
Apocalypse Now- Really like how visually stunning it is and how great the acting is by Brando, Sheen, Duvall, and Hopper.
Full Metal Jacket- When D'Onofrio shot R Lee's is one of the most chilling scenes in movie history imo.
Hamburger Hill- Deserves to be more well known, such a great, fun movie.
Black Hawk Down- Kinda feels like a video game but still a very thrilling movie with one of my favorite last lines in any movie ever.
The Thin Red Line- Little slow but gets better as it goes along with a lot of intense action that leaves you feeling exhilarated.
We Were Soldiers- Very good drama and action especially in the last half hour.
Some of these I definitely need to watch again cause of how long it's been. But they're all pretty badass imo.
