I miss there for example Full Metal Jacket or Paths Of Glory, voted for Apocalypse Now and Platoon.

My all time most favourite war movies as war as war books are the german ones - no patriotic or communist shit and no fairy tales:

Stalingrad (1993) - like if someone kicked you in balls
Das Boot (1981) - I recommend the Director's cut that is nearly four hours long, but you won't breathe

Sorry, Saving Private Ryan is a sweet patriotic fairy tale, nothing against mr. Hanks or mr. Spielberg, but it's exactly the thing suited for the US audience. The only good thing the movie did is that the young assess know that there was ever a World War II, thanks for that.
