POLL DESCRIPTION

Personal logo Grunt1861 Supporting Member of TMP wonders:

The recent poll on Best War Movie got me to thinking. What is my favorite part of a war movie? The hand-to-hand combat scenes, of course. A few of my all-time favorites:
  1. The final scene of Last of the Mohicans (the newest version)
  2. When the Emperor gets his due in Gladiator (actually, all of the hand-to-hand scenes were pretty good in that one)
  3. 300 - When the first wave of Persians hit was my favorite.
  4. The storming of Fort Wagner in Glory
  5. Although I didn't like the outcome, I thought that the scene between Melish and Steam Boat Willy in Saving Private Ryan was very tense.
