Like i wrote previously so many great movies on this poll and so many great classics that ddin't make it. To get to all of them we'd need like polls from A to Z.

MikeLL

I would expect Kelly's Heroes to win such a poll as this. There are soooooo many good classics here. I originally voted for The Dirty Dozen, but since the poll was reposted and I found I could vote for more than one, I voted for The DD, as well as Where Eagles Dare, The Train, The Longest Day, The Great Escape and of course, Patton. I love a good WWII movie made in the 1960's! So many good movies, need an "A" poll and a "B" poll and watch both!! (Or just watch the top two??)

Alan McCabe

So many great choices! Voted for "The Longest Day".

Yorkshire Shaft

Operation Daybreak should be on here a seriously great film. Based on a true story of assassination of hitlers number 2. The remake anthropiod was OK but they really gave it the Hollywood treatment over being true to its word. The nazis was a-holes

RFK Fan

All good choices really. Whoever recommended BREAKER MORANT deserves a medal for valor. Can’t believe I forgot to add that one.

pickupthepieces

Make May war month and watch them all. In the Netherlands we remember the fallen ones in wartime on May 4th with a nationwide moment of silence at 8pm. All radio and tv stations adhere to this too. Flag are half post and there are lots of remembrance events and one national event. The next day we celebrate our liberation from the German occupation and the whole nation parties with countless music festivals across the nation.

Mark Folden

Knock it off with those negative waves!!!

Highly recommend the less talked about ones. Come and See must be seen. Thin Red Line and Das Boot next. A few more for next time: (1) In the Cruel Sea: one of the most accurate films about naval combat in ww2 (2) Battleground (1949): Battle of Bulge (3-5) Bataan, Cry Havoc and So Proudly We Hail: world war 2 era ww2 films about the Philippines campaign (6) Kanal: Polish ww2 film about the Warsaw ghetto. Incredible filmmaking (7) War and Peace by Sergey Bondarchuk (8) The Cranes are Flying (9) Gettysburg (1993) (10) April 9th (2015): April occupation during ww2 (11) Winter War: the story of the Finnish defense against Soviet invasion during ww2. (12) Outlaw King (13) The Covenant by Guy Ritchie (14) Lee (2023) about Lee Miller

"Patton". A fantastic performance by George C Scott as the WW II General.

Catchermag

How did no one nominate A Bridge Too Far? The only bad Gene Hackman performance I’ve ever seen! lol ….although it was probably the terrible accent.

Andrew Pettola

The 1976 version of Midway had a superior cast, but the 2019 version is a little more true to history.

Lana Gorgeous

A difficult choice, but I saw Patton when I was in the US Army Stationed in Panama in 1979. All the soldiers in my platoon and company loved it. It was showed on Armed Forces Television and we could not get enough. George C Scott did such a great job that he was awarded an Oscar for his performance. He really got to the depth of this very complicated man and it was amazing. Of these movies The Dirty Dozen would be my second choice with the great Jim Brown. At the time he was considered the greatest football player in history, and he left the league at his prime to start his movie career and this was one of his first movies. He retired from football in 1966 and this movie was filmed in 1966/67, so he was still in football shape. Oh a little trivia, at that time Rachel Welch was considered the most beautiful woman in the world and an international sex symbol who also broke into Hollywood to do movies and one of her first films was 100 Rifles in 1969 that starred a young Burt Reynolds, But the main leads were Jim Brown and Rachel Wech and they had the first on screen love scenes on American Movies between a white woman and a black man.............. crazy for those times, hehehe :)

My top 4 = The Killing Fields (1984), The Thin Red Line (1998), Empire of Sun (1987), M*A*S*H (1970) [AFI Top 100]. Didn't vote Patton (1970) but like it + don't mind winning. Recently watched Kubrick's Paths of Glory (1957) my son recommended - wild w/good acting. Watched We Were Soldiers (2002) many times.

Toc

That is a GREAT list of war movies!!!!! I'm really psyched (and surprised!) to see Patton doing so well!!! I can't believe "The Train" is even on the poll, that's so great! Lots of worthy titles. Excellent curating!

John

Have you seen U-571? It's worth a watch if you haven't.

Catchermag

All of the top four right now are CRACKIN films. This is a poll where I can honestly say no matter who comes out on top, we all win

VivendoBem

A little surprised MASH is doing so well. Shocked and delighted by Patton's strong showing. Really surprised that Kwai or The Great Escape aren't running away with it. Fascinating poll!

Retro Maven

Kelly's Heroes. Woof Woof!!

MikeB

You like Duvall..? React to the movie Assassination Tango. Excellent little known Duvall film.

Catchermag

I can whistle the theme song from all three top vote getters. Well….the song in MASH that became the theme song for the TV Series

China Andronicus

So sad the Dirty Dozen didn’t come through. My sister and I watched that WAY too young and far too much to the point I still know all the dialogue. All star cast with Lee Marvin, John Cassavetes, Charles Bronson, Donald Sutherland, etc. Breaker Morant is an amazing true story and a film I recommend more than probably any except Lion in Winter. Phenomenally good, and starring Edward Woodward, lead actor in the Wicker Man that I mention so often. He popped up in Hot Fuzz as well, the man who ran the city watch and showed up with a gun in that last scene. It was his final film role. And I shall cease rambling now.^^
