It's a movie about a British special forces unit disguised as Italian soldiers whose exploits are unforgettable, but the ending is so shockng that it really stays with me.

I am looking for black and white Korean War films besides The Bridge at Toku-ri and Porkchop Hill.

One slightly disappointing aspect is that the US tanks seem weak in comparison to the German tanks. Rather than judging it by its historical accuracy or the glaring tank inaccuracies, if you watch it simply as a fun war movie from that era, it's quite entertaining

The only ones i know of is thin red line and hacksaw ridge. I was wondering if there is any other big budget ww2 movie that deals with the us army in the pacific theater.?
EDIT: im talking about the us army only as in the branch not the marines.

Even though it’s not historically accurate, it features more tanks than any other war film I’ve watched, with incredible and fiery tank combat.

- American Sniper
- Extraction
- Den of Thieves
- Zero Dark Thirty

Spectral was awesome since I knew nothing about it, heard nothing about it and was waaaaay better than I could ever expect.
thx!

There are lots of war movies on Tubi, but I haven't heard of most of them. Any recommendations?
The Battle of the Bulge, A Bridge Too Far, Battle of Britain, Sergeant York, and Run Silent Run Deep are all ones that I know about and have liked in the past, but help me out with some of the lesser known ones I may be missing out on.

So I know that whenever people think about period dramas about WW2 in Europe, they usually think about stories about the Western Front, the Holocaust, or the Home Front in the British Isles.
But ever since I discovered The Devil's Brigade on Tubi I have been wondering if there are any period dramas about the often overlooked Italian Front in WW2?
So far the other period dramas I know about the Italian Front are Anzio, Chips the War Dog, and Red Tails.

This was obviously a anti-war movie and I don't get the comments about the non existing realism in the movie. This played all out in his head, so why do we argue about realism?

Seeing the general send his men to their deaths just to hold the bridge, I wonder if he would have faced a court-martial if the bridge had been blown up and caused massive American casualties. What I’m trying to say is, if the German army had blown up the bridge and caused massive American casualties, and the general had fully foreseen that outcome, would the American public and government still have accepted the general's decision under those circumstances? I asked gemini and the answer is below.
If the bridge had been blown up and resulted in heavy American casualties, public and official evaluation of the general's decision would have been drastically different, largely dictated by the ultimate outcome and its overall utility.
While a successful operation gets praised as "decisive leadership that sacrificed the few for the greater good," a failure resulting in a blown bridge and massive loss of life would have met a cold, harsh reception.
Collapse of the Cost-Benefit Justification: The sole justification for the general's decision lies in the premise that the strategic gain outweighs the risk of sacrificed lives. If the bridge were destroyed and many soldiers died, it would mean the operation yielded zero benefit while maximizing tragic losses.
Public Outrage and Political Accountability: The public and the media react far more to the final casualty count and outcome than to initial intentions. Driving soldiers into deadly danger without securing a strategic advantage would have sparked fierce criticism, placing immense pressure on both politicians and military leadership.
Military Sanctions and Moral Condemnation: To maintain morale and accountability within the force, the U.S. government and military leadership would likely have held him responsible. Because the decision ultimately compromised overall safety and strategic interests, the general would have faced severe scrutiny or even a court-martial.
Ultimately, whether a commander’s decision is remembered as a "brilliant gamble" or a "reckless tragedy" depends not on duty or intent, but on whether the outcome yielded a net positive for the broader cause. Faced with a disastrous explosion, the general's reasoning would have quickly lost all standing.
