I know its a WW1 movie, but The Lost Battalion is quite good.
Whatever you do don't try finding them on Netflix Watch Instantly because it probably won't be there, BUT HEY AT LEAST YOU CAN WATCH TYLER PERRY'S "WHY DID I GET MARRIED TOO?"

I'm a big fan of WWII movies/shows/documentaries. Especially on the German side, but anything else is good too.
Here is what I've already watched or have
Band of Brothers
Inglourious Basterds
Saving Private Ryan
The Red Baron
Valkyrie
U-571
What I'm already getting
Hart's War
The Pacific
Enemy at the gates
Der Untergang
I also love 90's action movies like Demolition Man and Judge Dredd so anything like that is good too!
Thanks, and karma to whoever helps with good choices thanks

WWII Docs in order of favorite.
I should also throw this in here also.
- The World at War (BBC) Simply the best WWII documentary ever made. A classic for good reason. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_at_War
- The Nazis: A Warning from History (BBC) Focused strictly on the rise and fall of the Third Reich. Interviews with unrepentant Nazi supporters and collaborators. The narrative is excellent.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nazis: … om_History
- The War (Ken Burns) Available on Netflix for Stream Highlights the effect of the war on American towns and families. Stories and letters from veterans of the Bataan Death March, Pearl Harbor, etc. The war on a personal level. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War_(documentary)
- Apocalypse The Second World War (France) Declassified footage of the war by front-line soldiers, top-secret operatives, resistance fighters, and private citizens. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalypse … _World_War
- WWII in HD Available on Netflix for Stream (History Channel) Twelve American service members during World War II. Each with different backgrounds and roles in the war effort. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWII_in_HD
I should also throw this in here also.
I've seen plenty of others, but these top my list.Kmar wrote:
The film pretty much chronicles the worst of human behavior in China during WWII. No mercy, no quarter, mothers gutted with bayonets in front of their children, children opened up in front of their mothers. I was quite familiar with the Rape of Nanking prior to watching this. Still, hearing first hand accounts from witnesses and victims plays heavily on the viewers humanity... to be expected I guess.
