Spielberg’s incredibly impactful and cinematic re-telling of arguably the darkest period in human history won’t soon be forgotten. If you weren’t already shocked by the history of Nazism, this movie will bring it home to you with images from the Warsaw Ghetto, Auschwitz, survival and crazed blind…

A neo-classic military oriented thriller with some great twists and turns (literally, and in the plot). If you are a Connery fan — you won’t be dissappointed.

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…

– with 17 Trust Points – rated it
OK
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? …

One thing is for sure: There’s nothing tougher than a WWII South Pacific Jarhead. Spielberg and Hanks do an admirable job creating the Pacific version of ‘Band of Brothers’. The South Pacific version is much grittier and gut-wrenchingly raw. As someone commented in the movie – those Ar…

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…
