worst war filum

The hurt locker wanted to be realistic then just added random stupid stuff that would have worked in a movie that wasnt trying to be realistic
 
I know it's alien war, but it's still war - Independence Day. Saw it in the cinema with a gf and was bored to fucking tears. A product of that period where directors had just discovered CGI and thought that's all they needed.
What? Independence day was great! As soon as I saw the White House explosion in a preview on TV (and that's all I knew about it) I knew this was a film I wanted to see. Probably one of the best visual effects ever!

All done with miniatures and high frame rate photography too, none of your CGI rubbish.

Not really a war film though.
 




What do people think of the new Stalingrad film?, directed by Sergei Bondechuk's(War and Peace/Waterloo) Son, Fedor Bondarchuk, director of the powerful '9th Company'.

I hadn't realised that one had been made. I quite liked 9th Company, so I'll give this one a watch.
 
Pearl Harbour is genuinely awful. Personally though I would add the Heath Ledger remake of The Four Feathers, an utterly unnecessary film.

It's a load of rubbish with a weird focus on women being traitors. Very ugly stylistically, with its glut of slo-mo fighting sequences, a lugubrious voiceover and makesyouthink soliloquies. There's still a decent no nonsense action film to be made about Stalingrad and especially the Pavlov's House or grain elevator battle bits.

The 1993 film is decent, albeit shot from the other side.

The three main 'Four Feathers' films (including 'Storm Over The Nile') are excellent though.

That was what I was trying to describe when saying how unnecessary it is.
 
Worst war film for me Its got to be either "Pearl Harbour" {Tora Tora Tora was infinately better} or the remake of War of the Worlds :mad: That bore no resembelance to the HG Wells sifi classic I knew read and loved
