If it happened now, your country would fall in a day.
That is what happens when an education system, along with the entertainment industry attacks masculinity.

Get back to me when you can cope with wearing a mask without melting down.

I dont know if this ever got shown in the US but this is a major British film. A few people, an old truck and the desert. Movie magic.

The "best war movie" is the one that was never made.

War is the ultimate human failure. None of them need glorifying.

Camouflaging war and hiding it doesn't help....let the people see it....

Accurate depictions of war serves as valuable education

Yes it does. That's what history books are good for.
But since the thread is about war movies, when Hollyweird gets around to "accurate depictions" (of anything), please notify my descendants.

I’m not saying movies are a substitute for books, but there have been a few movies that have accurately portrayed what was war like according to people who fought in them.

Platoon is down to the wire so vey accurate the way that war was.

Saving Private Ryan.

Captain Miller’s death and Cpl Upham’s enlightenment.

13 Hours, about the attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, was really good.

MASH

The Sands of Iwo Jima with Duke Wayne. The Duke's "Sgt Stryker" character was his best in his prime.

"The Longest Day", not the best war movie but good entertainment.
