that was a good watch.
Stalingrad (1993) is pretty underrated. I've been rambling about how shitty and cheesy it is on here a few weeks ago, but after rewatching it, i gotta say it's still a very good movie. And it's a German movie about German soldiers, which is rare.

While very well known, i think The Thin Red Line is extremely underrated.
It's more than a war movie, it's a war about humans in a war, about life, death, friendship, loss, honor, nature, everything. About beauty where you would least expect it. And it's also a great war movie, imo the best about the pacific theatre and one of the best overall. it's got great acting, great filming, great writing, and a dozen A class actors.
The combat scenes are 10/10, and the whole part about them storming that one hill is also extremely well done. It's a small and rather simple task, but it takes a big part of the movie and shows how much impact a single assault can have on the lives of so many people. It also gives a great display of the tactics used on both sides. It's just a 10/10 movie everyone should have seen.
I really never understood how it could be overshined by Saving Private Ryan so much, i think it's a much better and much deeper movie.

this is fucking right A hooah reminds me why I joined the army
Brayden Adams
This movie's premise made absolutely no sense.
>be 3 star general
>order clandestine operation in a foreign country
>basically a spec-ops reconnoiter
>soldiers on the recon team get killed
>go to prison for it
I mean don't get me wrong I would love if careerist officers were held to that level of accountability. BUT if a Jow Forums movie means "realistic portrayal of military tactics/military ops" this movie should be titled "The last defense meritorious service medal" and consist of one scene in which Robert Redford gets a defense meritorious service medal pinned to his chest in front of his division formation and sent off to a cushy pentagon job like other field grade officers who get people needlessly killed.
>TL;DR. The Last Castle was a totally unrealistic portrayal of how an LTG would face legal repercussions (he wouldn't) for people dying under his command.

Nathaniel Scott
Is there a movie about commonwealth forces in the pacific that isn't about a marathon gone wrong or bridge building?
Benjamin Jones
I saw this movie years ago and I don't get it. He gets sent to prison, instantly dislikes the warden, then starts doing petty bullshit to fuck with the warden and generally break the rules. In the end he goads the warden into shooting him as he hoists a flag. Was he suppose to come off as a prick?
Camden Murphy
i cant understand why imdb and rotten faggots hated this movie so much.
to me, this was better than sicario
Elijah Collins

Locked stocked and two smoking barrels.
No country for old men.
Or weeb shit that's also fucking good.
Cowboy Bebop
Goblin Slayer
Claymore
Trigun (low high tier, shit ain't in order)
Attack on Titans if you don't mind incest themes.
Cooper Hernandez
The only good part of the film is the bit with the squad trying to take the hill and being mowed down by the hidden bunker, while the officer in charge tries and fails to salvage the situation. Other than that, it's a painfully pretentious borefest that spends a lot of time on bad poetry and slow pans, while having nothing of actual substance behind them.
Incredibly underrated shootout. Does almost everything right.
Some that most people forget about:
>Dog soldiers
>Open range
>A better tomorrow I, II & the killer
>Clear and present danger
>Sahara (1943)
>True lies (THAT scene doesn't count)
Adam Rivera
fuck off back to plebbit kike shill
Michael Gomez
>Open range
Underrated cowboy movie in terms of the end shootout. Best part is that dude getting domed right in the beginning with no warning.
Nathan Robinson
Triple Frontier on Netflix is Jow Forums as fuck
Adam Jenkins
just watched it last night. they didn't reload, not even once. still a good movie, i loved the headshot at the beginning and the dual wield execution at the end.

Thin Red Line is criminally underrated, just ahead of Master and Commander as my favorite war movie.

It’s goofy to write off a movie over a minor characters actors opinions. Stay on the meme train boys
Lincoln Jones
>The Odd Angry Shot (1979)
I remember watching this back in '86. It's about the Australian involvement in Vietnam. I thought it was pretty good.
Oliver Phillips
Nothing more Jow Forums than taking over Central Park with a shit load of cached weapons & explosives for 48 hours in the name of veterans abused by an uncaring System.
Remember, red taped AK mags are live rounds, blue are blanks.

The Mummy (1999). Really great adventure film with lots of gunplay.

Tyler Gray
Southern Comfort (1981)
Anyone seen this movie??? It seems to be quite obscure but I just watched it this year for the first time and it was awesome!!! I watched it with my brother a few weeks ago too and it was still awesome!!! 7.5/10 would recommend
It's got Fred Ward (from tremors) and Powers Boothe (from Red Dawn, and Tombstone) and the rest of the characters are really fun too. I believe this movie is a hidden gem
Also speaking of Red Dawn that's probably the most Jow Forums movie. love it!
Oliver Thomas
I love that movie! Brendan Fraser and Beni make the movie a masterpiece
Hey O'CONNELL LOOKS LIKE IVE GOT ALL THE HORSES

That's been in my watchlist for a long time now. Gonna have to give it a watch next time I get drunk.

Daniel Wood
what a fag.
Ryder Thompson
This has downright autistically good weapons handling and is probably the most accurate depiction of the Vietnam was and special forces in general.
Ayden Green
Good taste, user. Jim Caviezel's performance is very good.
Thomas Davis
nah i got the first 48 for that.
like dog the bounty redpilling me on hawaii being a shit hole. Never knew parts of Oklahoma were that black adn shitty.

Ah there it is. I had this and accidentally deleted it. Thanks.
Leo Murphy
Had high hopes for this.
Was cliche and unconvincing. 4/10
Josiah Gomez
I fell asleep the first two times I tried to watch this. Finally got all the way through it. Not worth the time at all imo.
Austin Hall
Just watched it, it was surprisingly decent, but I wouldn't say it's better than Sicario.
Hollywood silencers kinda killed it for me, though. Lots of overly quiet and squeaky gun reports, and you can tell when he's assembling his Glock that it's a movie silencer that screws into the barrel, rather than around the outside.
The sound was definitely better when they were shooting weapons unsuppressed. Reloading was depicted well, too.
Would recommend to watch on Netflix.
Angel Bailey
>autistically good

There's an M4 with a removable carry handle and a Hind on the cover. No thanks.
...or were you being sarcastic?

watch the mutt/britfag armies get butchered by DPs and maxims. best day of my life.
Christopher Anderson
the guys who made the movie aren't necessarily responsible for the cover
Jayden Robinson
Excellent movie if you arnt brain dead like most people on this board
Nolan Taylor
Dude I'm telling you, just watch it. It's literally exactly what the military is like. It's like you are deployed on an actual SF mission in Vietnam.
Joshua Diaz
You've tipped your hand now. You successfully baited me into responding but you can't trick me into watching that garbage.
Isaiah Young
Nah man, it's exactly what it looks like. The movie is a masterpiece from start to finish.
Luke Sullivan
Watch as much as you can though. It's the kind of bad I can laugh at and I've turned off a lot of shitty action movies because I couldn't even appreciate how bad they were. They have to have legit mental problems to create something like that.
Ayden Sanchez
but it looks like shit, i'm very confused right now user
Asher Barnes
This list is only 40% complete.
Jonathan Hernandez
Then create something better
Landon Davis
I just watched it yesterday, as far as i can tell its mostly about the warden. The general shows up, the warden dresses in his nicest clothes, invites the general up to his office, offers him lemonade, etc. Then the second he hears the general insult his war memorabilia behind his back, hes crushed. You can tell the warden was obsessed with the general, and his personal hero insulted him, then his entire demeanor changed. Add onto it that the warden routinely had prisoners shot, purposely, in the head with rubber bullets to kill them. The warden simply had an ego problem, and the general was a reminder of that, no one looked up to him like they did the general.
Hudson Sanders
HEY BENNY, looks to me like you're on the wrong side of the RIIIIVVVVEER
Jaxon Smith
>fires 30 rounds from his revolvers without reloading
Nolan Rodriguez
if you watch, waite does reload 2 or 3 times in the battle but the ammo inconsistency is something i have learned to live with.
