But in terms of films that literally show war-

1. Apocalypse Now
2. Ran
3. Saving Private Ryan
4. The Deer Hunter
5. Lawrence of Arabia
6. Atonement
7. Das Boot
8. Intolerance
9. Paths of Glory

Lots of incredible films within broader genre of war:
Grave of the Fireflies
Schindler's List
The Best Years of Our Lives
etc.

1- Kelly's Heroes
