If the poll was "Best Half a movie ever made" FMJ would win hands down but AN is a better movie over all.

Yeah, up through the scene where the Criminal Intent genius blows his brains out, FMJ is incredible. But ultimately, the movie falls short of a masterpiece.

I give it to AN only on the strength of the redux version. I never liked the movie that much until I saw it on the big screen for the redux release a couple of years ago.

3 hours 23 minutes. This is way too long, even for a movie as great as AN.

Which is why I specifically stated "film" not movie; it is clear I am treating the two separately. Thanks for pointing that out for the umpteenth time, however.

It's actually pretty damn unclear you are treating the two differently, being that you bring up Band of Brothers, the mini series, in a thread about war movies. I guess I'm curious as to your specific definition of the word "film" in this instance.

Film = All inclusive. This would include documentaries, mini-series, movies, ect. In other words, the term "film" includes all movies that were subject to your contest.

Movie is a one-shot, discreet production. I am using movie as we commonly understand it to be ... something that we would go to the movie theater to watch. In other words, the term "movie" is narrower than film and does not include documentaries, mini series, etc.

Sorry to ruin your thread.

May have been said before but...

FMJ might be the best boot camp movie of all time but the war segment is far behind the pack.
