4. Full Metal Jacket
5. Platoon
6. Saving Private Ryan
7. Forrest Gump (Great Vietnam scenes)
8. Pearl Harbor
9. Lone Survivor
10. Zero Dark Thirty
#s 7 - 10 are debatable but they all gave me unforgettable images of war. I also haven't seen Paths of Glory, Patton, Black Hawk Down, Deer Hunter, or The Hurt Locker, which are all supposedly great.
Apocalypse Now is definitely the best tho.
I really think such a list should be more specific, such as in time frames.
War movies before firearms, WWI, WWII, Vietnam, etc...
But in general:
Full Metal Jacket
Saving Private Ryan
Inglorious Bastards
Lone Survivor
Black Hawk Down
Gettysburg
The Thin Red Line
Kingdom of Heaven
Braveheart
The Last Samurai
In no specific order. There are so many good ones, though.
I am young, so as a result I have not seen as many movies in my time as a lot of people here. But I can safely say that The Thin Red Line is, in my opinion, one of the worst that I have ever seen

Ran
Lawrence of Arabia
