Good call on Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein. When he was on form Mel Brooks was superb. Sadly not been on form for many years

[haplesshacker]

How could I forget Black Hawk Down. Excellant cinematography, great soundtrack, and the Americans getting kicked. But a great 'raw' war film. Saw a documentory on it and all the actors went to 'Ranger' school and were taught how to move etc. Alot of the scenes weren't that reheresed as the film makers wanted 'genuine' reactions to the explosions and stuff. Great film.

Also Saving Private Ryan, well only the first 20 minutes. I think that they should show that in schools to teach the kids what their grandparents might have gone through. It never fails to move me.

 

[andiritchie]

scarface and snatch legend films

 

[TonyN]

Not really a film but has anyone one mentioned band of brothers?
