Definitely not the best by any stretch of the imagination, but TAPS is noteworthy at the least because it predicted the level of crazy that Tom Cruise would eventually reach.

IMO Full Metal Jacket was good for the first 30-45 minutes, after that it was nothing noteworthy. Saving Private Ryan and Apocalypse Now were great films throughout.
Surprised Mr Grey didn't mention Fahrenheit 9/11 and the War On Terror 8) Ripped like paper raped with ease hey scrub nerd pyros suck on these |

Not really into war films. 300 is probably the closest to the genre amongst my favourites. I'll second Caff's shout for Band of Brothers though, that was ace. Although, weirdly enough, I hated Saving Private Ryan.

I'm glad there is a lot of appreciation for the BoB. I love that series. And if you don't already know, another series by exec producers Tom Hanks and Spielberg is coming out on HBO later this year called "The Pacific" It covers the lives of three marines and battles of Pacific arena including: Peleliu, Iwo Jima, Guadalcanal, and Okinawa.
