Good war/milsurp movies and tv shows.

Well I have Netflix for a month! I need ideas on good war movies/ shows that have a good dose of milsurps. Already watched the siege of jadotville. Really liked it. Need more ideas!

Ww2 in colour!

Is ''Enemy at the Gates" still available on Netflix? Thirteen Hours? Hard to think of many movies that really feature firearms and tactics rather
than just drama. Wind River is great, though not a war movie. Black Hawk Down!

Battle Grounds
The Longest Day
Our World War (Netflix)
Hacksaw Ridge
Thin Red Line
Fury
Twelve o’clock High
DasBoot

There is one on netflix right now about some boxer in a jail in (french) vietnam with some hiding nazi as the 'bad guy' .... not a great movie but all kinds of french and german hardware (stg44 gets a few minutes of spotlight) I can't remember the name right now...... anybody?

Since we're talking Netflix, Seige of Jadotville!

On Netflix "Babylon Berlin" it is not a war movie but has nice selection of German Weapons

 

[Markit]

The Wild Geese.

A take on Col. Mad Mike Hoare. Mercenaries in Africa.

Roger Moore
Richard Burton and some good old time Brit actors.

Awesome movie.
Lots of WW2 weapons as well as FN’s, sterlings etc.

Winter War, in the original Finnish with English subtitles. Tons of Red Army WW2 stuff for you red gun guys. Even working T26 Soviet tanks.

Not sure if they are on Netflix, but if you get a chance Band of Brothers and the Pacific are a must watch!

Above and Beyond. Not sure if it’s still up but we’ll worth the $4 rental from another service if it’s not.

Not sure if they are on Netflix, but if you get a chance Band of Brothers and the Pacific are a must watch!

I just dusted off my CD 's of both these mini-series and will agree that they are both excellent views of WWII hardware.

Check out "Anthropoid"
its about Czech officers attempting a Nazi assasination


Also, "Inglorious Bastards".
More of a comedy of sorts, but lots of Milsurps. Definitely not kid friendly

 

[RifleDude]

Saving Private Ryan
Band of Brothers
The Pacific (sequel to the Band of Brothers series)

 

[westwest]

Stalingrad is a must see!
