World War 2 Movies...

[ck1]

I'm looking for a decent war movie to watch with the kids tomorrow, any suggestions?

[Frank97]

Operation Amsterdam
Saving Private Ryan

[ChillDoubt]

The Longest Day
Ice Cold In Alex
In Which We Serve(particular favourite of mine)
Kelly's Heroes(bit more of a fun element if watching with kids)
Black Book(in German with subtitles)
The Colditz Story

To name but a few.

Should have mentioned The Battle of Britain and Valkyrie too.

"the longest day "by far the best for kids to get an understanding of what guys went through in ww2

[ChillDoubt]

You can even watch IWWS on youTube:

Dirty Dozen, Kelly's Heroes, A Bridge too Far, Where Eagles Dare, Saving Private Ryan (D-Day opening scenes).

A really good film but probably no good with kid because its in German with sub-titles is Das Boot.Well worth the time spent watching it.

You have all missed the best one...........

SINK THE BISMARCK.

[berniecuddles]

[sandyRoe]

The Cockleshell Heroes was another good one.

I'd go with Ice Cold In Alex - bloody brilliant film (also has my favourite drinking scene ever).

[shoota]

Attack on the Iron Coast - partly filmed in my old school, dontcha know!

[mallyh]

the bridge at ramagen

Ice Cold in Alex is brilliant. Depends what you mean by decent, I've watched Memphis Belle about 50 times, still gets me but it's not for the purists.

What about TORA TORA TORA? my 4 kids were forced to watch it and they have forced their kids to watch it...........

The great escape. A great tale of derring do, which never loses its appeal. I love it!
