this thread has been out for awhile now, but i had to add soldier (with Kurt Russel) as rambo said. i had forgotten this movie, which i am now watching. a great, great movie, up there with rambo.

I don't put SOLDIER as a war movie. Most sci-fi movies aren't considered war movies. I mean, Starship Troopers would have to be on there too as well as DOOM. but it's not. People tend to look at the current era (Gulf War, Iraq and moving back to Vietnam, WWII, Korean war, WWI) as WAR MOVIES.

I love Soldier. I based a lot of my Joe2050 off it.

I have only seen Apocalypse Now listed a couple of times. I Netflixed it the other day, it had been a good 20 years since I saw it last. I remembered not caring for it to much and thought now that I was older I would enjoy it. Was I wrong, what a pile of crap, this movie is BORING!!! The only good part in the whole movie was Robert Duvall's part. Other than that this thing is a waste of celluloid! I got the extended SE director's cut. This thing was to long by at least 2 hours. The whole bit at the French plantation was absolutely stupid, why was it in there. The Playboy playmates...yuck, I have seen my share of Playboys in my time, but I have never seen such uglyness in there! Little to no gunfire in the entire movie, Rambo had more in 10 minutes than this "war flick" had total. And Marlon Brando...PLEASE! Thank the gods Charlie made Platoon to redeem the Sheen name! Be honest, who like this movie & why?
