OK
A war movie that isn’t really about war – but instead is a coming of age drama about a young man on a 96 hour leave before his deployment to Iraq. Filled with drama that comes from confronting the past – a punk kid life in Bakersfield – and the future: responsible behavior, a beautiful n…

Apocalypse Now
|
Fire at Will!
– with 7 Trust Points – rated it
Perfect
A fantastic film cataloguing insanity, war and imperialism, Apocalypse Now is a sprawling, magnificent film that masterfully builds up dread and tension through its adaptation of Conrad’s Heart of Darkness.

Bicycle troops against invading Germans? The equipment, including the machine guns mounted to motorcycle side cars seemed comically inadequate. It’s easy to make fun of the circumstances, but apparently this is a serious tale of bravery and heroism to the Danes.

Goodbye Children – the final words of a heroic priest as he’s led away by a Jew-hunting Gestapo agent – forms a fitting title for this beautifully realized recounting of writer-director Louis Malle’s childhood experience during the Nazi occupation of France. Au Revoir les Enfants – _Goodbye …

If you liked ‘Sniper’, this is a sniper you’ll want to see. It is worth sticking out the subtitles for this great story about Lyudmila Pavlichenko, the most successful female sniper in history. This is a Bio-Drama war flick, so you’ll be highly engaged as you follow her story as war forces her t…

OK
They don’t make war movies like this any more: primadonna stars rendering glamorous portrayals of gentlemanly air-boys, and acting that would be considered as being over the top. Battle of Britain is all of that, and I loved it. Marvelous old planes, awesome old aerial shots of the English co…

Great
There is nothing like the emotion behind a good war movie. Put that to use in a good humans vs. alien story, and you have the makings of a great summer blockbuster. Battleship is a worthy blockbuster indeed. The aliens are bad-ass, and the Navy is badder, and you’ll not often have a more fun ti…

Abraham Attah is outstanding in this chronicle of a West African boy’s life adventure from happy child to his journey as a forced child soldier in a group of mercinaries. Although the movie is fictional, it loosely follows similar events in West African history and often botched UN protection. …
