What makes Hamburger Hill worth watching is that it differentiates itself from the overly produced war movies like Apocalypse Now and Full Metal Jacket and just tells the story of one of the more infamous battles of Vietnam in a straight-up fashion. Just a group of Infantry trying to survive from… |

A movie that follows the crew of the Memphis Belle — a WWII bomber smack in the middle of the risky allied daytime raids over Germany. There is nothing terribly special about the acting, but nothing terribly bad either. Just ‘Ok’. The story was intriguing — the movie focuses on the events le… |

I love war movies, so’The Thin Red Line’ did not dissappoint me. It took too long to get to real action for my taste, and instead spent a good deal of time being melodromatic and ethereal. HOwever, once things got going, it did an amazing job of portraying the realism of the horror and craziness… |
||||||
A raw depiction of what it was like in Somalia. No glamor here. The peace-keepers had it really rough fighting the entrenched warlords. The movie paints the picture of an American Army facing desperate odds trying to get a job done and saving fallen comrades amidst a whirlwind of violence and may… |

Its not often you get to see a mainstream actor in a mythic/period piece such as this, and Brad “I will look down upon your corpse and smile” Pitt doesn’t disappoint as the invulnerable Achillies. How cool is watching him take down worthy opponents with deft jumps and swift swings of his sword? … |

Another war movie that tries to impart the senselessness of it all. Similar to some other war movies, this film focuses on the difficult adjustment that soldiers have to make when back from the battlefield. Tortured minds haunted and all that. This time, a band of friends all from the same home-t… |

Redacted is filmed in a ‘faux documentary’ style (read: hints of Cloverfield) and focuses on the American occupation in Iraq and an ugly incident in Samara. The movie stands out from otheres of the genre in the way it confrontings the subject in a raw uncut fashion. Certainly De Palma was trying… |
||||||
A bit of 1970’s style irreverence tells the story of a rogue band of US soldiers who take advantage of the war in France to go for some cash. The best part of the movie are the cast of characters who (well maybe except for Clint Eastwood) really ham it up: Telly Savalas, Don Rickles, Donald Su… |

Widow maker indeed. If you thought you already know how stressful things are on a wartime submarine? Try a nuclear submarine with a reactor failure. Starting with the champagne bottle that would not break at the christening, you knew things were going to go badly for the sea trials of K-19, Ru… |

Nicolas Cage, the most versatile B-movie drama-king does all things Nick as a marine assigned to protect a Navajo code talker (Adam Beach). As expected, there were tons of overly-dramatic “war is hell” action scenes and moments of personal drama. The level of cheese did not turn away this war-… |
