"From mr
Platoon, full metal jacket, Blackhawk down, apocalypse now
yes all army films but all epic "
Agreed  Full Metal Jacket was filmed in the barracks I did basic training. It was cheaper for them to fly everyone to the UK to film it. If you look at the first few scenes you can see the road signs are British (on the left  ).
It's not all that realistic, very hyped up, but I love Black Hawk Down, probably my favourite war film of the lot. Though Band of Brothers trumps the lot.. imho |

I like "The Raid" and the most recent "Dredd" Films, but one copied the other.
Red Cliff 1 & 2 for a little Chinese Epic history.
Mongol - first part of Ghengis Khans life story.
Shawshank Redemption (obviously).
Memento.
Inception.
Shutter Island.
I like films |

If you get a chance, read the book Black Hawk Down. I love the film but the book is 10 times better. It paint the US military hierarchy in a very poor light. |

"For me its The shawshank redemption....if you please."
The most under-rated film ever. The hauntingly beautiful score is by Thomas Newman who has scored The Green Mile, American Beauty & Wall-E amongst others. |
