I really loved The Pianist. I know it isn't a war movie but it has a few good battle sequences. Polanski really captured the brutality of the Germans in the film (I don't like to call em Nazis because I compare to a racial slur). It's probbaly because the guy was an actual holocaust survivor. I also really love Defiance because the performaces in the movie are great, espicially Daniel Criag and Liev Schriber.

I just watched The Lost Battalion. I have to say that was one of the best TV movies I have ever seen. There was some cheesy but it was in small quantites. I just didn't like how the Americans didn't have M1917 Brownings or BARs. I also didn't like the lack of M1903s. It was still a good movie.

I just saw the hurt locker for the first time, and thought it was pretty good
 . I'd recommend to anyone who's a fan of war films. Also i forgot to put in my original post Waltz with Bashir, a truly excellent film.

The lack of m1903s in the lost battalion is accurate, the m1903 was more of a specialized marksmans rifle, the m1917 was the standard issue battle rifle. I like how there was some m1917 revolvers too, and original m1911s, not a1s. They did a great job with gun accuracy.

The Hurt Locker wasn't bad. I showed it to my buddy, who was in the Marine corp and he was yelling at the British merc trying to snipe with the barret. He kept exposing himself, getting shot in the process.
