Was just going to post that, probably my favourite war movie :y:

Edit: Empire of the Sun is also worth watching for sure :y:

I wouldn't classify Schindler's list as a war movie though. Even if it depicts casualties of war.

thats why I postfaced my choice

Letters from Iwo Jima is a 2006 Japanese-American war film directed and co-produced by Clint Eastwood, starring Ken Watanabe and Kazunari Ninomiya. The film portrays the Battle of Iwo Jima from the perspective of the Japanese soldiers and is a companion piece to Eastwood's Flags of Our Fathers, which depicts the same battle from the American viewpoint

I'll begin with those 2, thanks
Reviews seem to favor the former, is that how you feel as well?

I've seen Saving Private Ryan probably 3-4 times, pretty good movie.

I've watched some of Flags Of Our Father and it was pretty decent from what i'd seen. Plan on watching both in due time. I figured it was what you where looking for, given that you see both sides perspective :y:

Life is Beautiful

One of the most powerful movies ever made. I cannot recommend this film enough.

You know what?

The Reader is a film you definitely should check out, too. And maybe The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas.

Ehh, the book was better.

I'll never understand why they used english accents.

The movie could have been a lot better, I agree. I'm trying to think of films that show both sides though, like he said.

I really liked this movie. No problem with the accents as I watched it in Spanish.

Also liked Saving private Ryan.

I never watched Life is beautiful but always wanted, everybody says is great. And Roberto Benigni is very talented.

Now this is of topic, but @Revo, what the hell is on your avy? I know is not that but it looked to me like a bad bridal bouquet. :unsure:

Sorry, did the Nazis have any perspective other than the movie depicts?

The Reader does a good job of humanizing Nazis. At least, for me it did.
