I enjoyed “Unbroken” both the book and movie. For a classic movie my favorite is “Kelly’s Heroes.” Not about Americans but “Enemy @ the Gates” is a pretty good movie.

I always enjoyed "Memphis Belle" along with all the others mentioned. "Enemy at the Gates" was an excellent movie.

Surprised Hacksaw Ridge hasn't gotten more mention. Gory and violent as it was, I thought its release was actually well-timed around Christmas. The message I took from it was that God is present, and highly active, even in the midst of the most vicious things men can do to one another.
Didn't like Dunkirk. Thought it ignored an inspiring story, falling all over itself trying to be art. I thought the result was a muddled, self-important mess,

Mine are
The Great Escape, The Guns of Navarone, Where Eagles Dare and The Bridge over the River Kwai. I also love Schindlers List but man that's tough to watch.
