absolute brilliance- though neither are actually WAR movies- but they are millitary type movies-
G.I.Jane- its about a woman being offered the first position in a man run millitary field. But she has to prove herself to everyone and is treated very badly. Its a brilliant movie.
The other is The guardian- same sort of thing- millitary training for a position as a coast guard swimmer.... blooming fantastic...
Other good ones are 300, King Arthur, Troy, The patriot, Kingdom of Heaven, Pearl Harbour etc
