    Every few years I like to watch "To hell and back" with Audie Murphy playing himself. Old but still good.

    Band of Brothers is hands down my favorite even though it is really a series.

    13 Hours is really good too.

    We Were Soldiers is one of my favorites.

    If you like Band of Brothers, The Pacific was also a good series.

    As far as Netflix goes, Hyena Road was a good one even though it's a Canadian film that features their military in Afghanistan.

    It isn't a movie, but a miniseries; but Band of Brothers is the most well-done war film ever made, IMO. They take the time to capture some realities that just aren't romantic enough for most movies, while telling the amazing story of an awesome group of men.

    I agree with everything mentioned so far. I would add The Lost Battalion as another good one. True story about an American Battalion in WWI.

    YES, and Sgt. York, two of my favorites .....

    I agree on Band Of Brothers. And Saving Private Ryan replicating the attack on D-Day.
