April 7th 2010 01:18
This article on FoxNews.com takes a look at the 30 best war films of all time. From "All Quiet on the Western Front" to "The Hurt Locker," every combat movie you know and love is there. Below is a small selection.
The first film in Oliver Stone’s Vietnam War trilogy, the 1986 Oscar-winner stars Tom Berenger, Willem Dafoe, and Charlie Sheen.
Robert De Niro, John Savage and Christopher Walken play steelworker pals fighting in Vietnam in this 1978 Best Picture Oscar winner.
Frances Ford Coppola expertly depicts the insanity of Vietnam in this 1979 masterpiece, with help from a script inspired by Joseph Conrad’s novella “Heart of Darkness.”
He’s known for Westerns, but John Wayne is also superb in combat flicks. This 1962 World War II film is often considered the best war movie of all time.
In this 1963 film (based on the true story), Steve McQueen and his fellow POWs are held captive in a Nazi prison camp.

My top five favourite war movies:
1. Apocalypse Now
2. Come and See
3. Platoon
4. The Deer Hunter
5. The Thin Red Line
I'd also like to mention The Bunker, but it's less of a combat picture and more of a chamber piece.
M.A.S.H. and Catch 22 are also worth a mention, although they're black comedies.
