Question

any good action World WAR 2 or world WAr 1 or vietnam? movies like ex: Saving private Ryan etc with tons of action?

Answer 1

Das Boot
Letters from Iwo Jima
Go For Broke
Enemy at the Gates
Saving Private Ryan
Battleground
We Were Soldiers
Alls Quiet on the Western Front
Schindler's List
The Great Escape

Answer 2

Twelve O'Clock High, Sands of Iwo Jima, Das Boot, The Lost Battalion, M*A*S*H, We Were Soldiers Once, Love is a Many Splendored Thing (yep, it's true! Korea), A Bridge Too Far (a movie too long), The Longest Day, Patton, Enemy at the Gates, The Thin Red Line, Tora! Tora! Tora, Midway , Codetalkers (I can't remember the real name) Bridge on the River Kwai...
Private Ryan may have taken some literary license but IS based on the Niland family of Tonawanda, New York. I still cry. But then, most of you who know of me would figure I would,
Twelve O'Clock High was the one my Dad said most accurately reflected the air war in Europe - 8th Air Force - We Were Soldiers Once (and Young) gets me every time.
I could go on and on and on...

I was going to suggest Zulu! - but you said WWII - do watch it - incredible.

Answer 3

WW2 -" The Longest Day ", the story of D-Day
or " When Trumpets Fade " the story of fighting in the Huertgen Forest of Germany.
Vietnam -" We were Soldiers Once... and Young ", the true story of the Battle of the Ia Drang Valley.
WW1 - " The Lost Battalion " the true story of an American battalion trapped behind German lines.
All exciting movies, if you want to know what is meant when soldiers say they are not thinking about fighting for their country, they are fighting for their buddies lives, watch the last two.
There are many more, but those ones are up there with Saving Private Ryan.

Answer 4

I agree with most of the other movies already mentioned, but my favourite war movies are Full Metal Jacket and Apocalypse Now (both about Vietnam).

Answer 5

Depends what you mean by "Good". Saving Private Ryan was historical fiction(and nonsense)

If you like that sort of thing there is plenty.

However if you prefer something nearer the truth, The Battle of Britain is good,so is A Bridge too Far.

Answer 6

The Steel Helmet ( Korean war ) , Apocalypse Now ( Vietnam ), Flags of Our Father ( WW2 ), Paths of Glory ( WW1) , et.al.

Answer 7

for older movies, The longest day (d-day), The great escape (based on true accounts), Sands of Iwo Jima, Battle cry, Gung-ho, Alls quiet on the western front, Green Beret, Platoon, Apocolpse now, Flying leathernecks, Midway, run silent run deep, the enemy below.

Answer 8

The Dirty Dozen is great, you actually get to see a lot of action along with decent old film stars. I would also try the great escape, which shows how prisoners of war escaped. These are older movies, but are more historically acurate than modern films just focused on boobs and blood.

Answer 9

Band of brothers is a great Mini-siereis from HBO and a true story.

Based on an equally good book
