Best Films:

Stalingrad
Cross of Iron
Das Boot
Bridge too Far
Band of Brothers
Dambusters
Battle of Britain


Worst:

Enemy at the Gates (Just for Jude Laws English-Russian Accent. I didnt realise they spoke with a south English twang in Southern Russia!!!!)

Private Ryan - Yes the Beach scene is great and no I dont have a problem with it being all american (that is a stupid argument anyway) but the final scene just smacked too much of the heroic few holding out tenaciously against the baddies. Anyway the Germans wouold never have attacked up a street liike that. RThey might have gone into the houses for example

Pearl Harbour - Oh God!! How bad can a film be? The Makers of Tora Tora Tora can rest easy, theirs is the better film, by far.

Thin red Line - An attempt to make the "Apocaypse Now" of the WWII Genre that backfires badly. I dont want to see 25 minutes of Green Grass Billowing in the Breeze, thanks very much. I can turn on Discovery for that!!!
