What are the best war movies of all time? We here at My Little Empire do not have a clue. So we put together these lists of war movies that show what we think are the best war movies around. Clearly there could have been lots of other movies here like alien movies and funny war movies but we decided to just include modern enough movies and a short list of pre world war movies.
We have broken our list up into four categories, Pre World War 1 & 2 movies, World War 1 & 2, Vietnam War movies and Post Vietnam War movies.
Click on the Category below to see the list. Please click on “show” to see selected trailers. So in no particular order:
