Kellys Heros gets my vote as well.

I have already nominated (and have a copy ready) "Burning Bridges" to be played at my funeral (hopefully that will be many years from now)

Anybody seen 'The Odd Angry Shot'?

Australian SAS in Vietnam. Graham Kennedy, John Hargreaves, Brian Brown and even Ray Meagher (funny scene where he is unhappy about the guys shooting up his firing range).

Humour, action and great acting.

It's a bit old (1979), but if you haven't watched it, you're missing out.

No, don't remember this one either. Graham Kennedy as in Graham Kennedy? Have to have a look for this one too!

Cross of Iron 1977

Battle of Britain, Good morning Vietnam or Saving Private Ryan and 633 Squadron

Kellys hero's and as a series ANZACS, can't watch Gallipoli as it makes me angry, also love The lighthorseman.

Was filmed over my school when I was a kid, my father and I got kicked off the airfield (Sywell) when we went for a look one evening. IIRC the Me109s had a different engine in them (not original) which changed the nose shape.

These are all good, but, some of the acting by some of the actors in these movies, make me grind my teeth

The Lighthorseman would be my pick of them.
