Not sure the best western front movies are better

Bridge over the River Kwai , Tora! Tora! Tora!, and Letters from Iwo Jima stack up pretty well.

Western front you got Saving Private Ryan , Stalingrad ( German version) , Das boat, Battle of the Buldge ( mainly for the Panzer Lied) , Bridge too far ..

Though their are certainly more decent ones in the west there are a lot of real BAD pacic movies , Pearl Harbour , Final count down , most John Wayne movies etc etc .

Well that is all that comes to mind at the moment. Sure I could think if many more if I spent a few minutes.

Later,
KayBay

Since Kaybayray was kind enouch to basically list all of them, I'll just bold in the ones I find extremely good. (Hopefully I don't end up doing a shame walk...)

Hmm...mostly John Wayne movies...
