hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahaha hahahahhahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahah#1 Enemy at the Gates Most authentic and historically accurate war movie IMO. It was based on a true story and what a story it was.
hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahaha hahahahhahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahah
holy shit when the writers strike is over, you should get a job writing comedy
I found it a bit long and almost... boring? I guess the cinematography was great and it was cool the way it felt like one long shot. But the focus on the one/two characters rather left it feeling like a study of humanity vs being a war film. I'll have to give it another go, I might not have been in the right mood for it the other week.One of my favorite newish war films is 1917.
Personally I really enjoyed the latest iteration of All Quiet on the Western Front.

I would like to echo number 2 here. Enemy at the gates only got one mention... Great film. Although,heh, a chick who likes war movies
Band of Brothers was amazing... I was in a class jr year called "World at War" that was all about WWI and WWII. Watching Band of Brothers was actually a homework assignment.
