I could just say any film made by Americans, Their massive bending of the truth. But I vote "The Battle of the Bulge" for No1

Yeh I agree. Films like saving ryans privates  . Dont get me wrong its a great portrale of operation overlord but Im waiting for a modern film that shows that Blighty was there at D-day as well. ;D ;D |

Battle of the Bulge is a shocker ! as are many others !! In defence of SPR, if there's 1 film that changed peoples opinion of WW2 movies this rates as it (in my view anyway), having grown up on a diet of gung ho type war films at least SPR offers some reality even if it denies the whole truth, hey thats hollywood for ya..... dont get me started......  |

In no particular order (as these are supposed to be 'accurate' and not of the 'Dirty Dozen' type film).
Pearl Hrbour
U-123456 (OR WHATEVER NUMBER IT WAS?)
Battle of ther Bulge
bubbling under the top three - Shaving Ryans Privates, apart from the 1st 20mins, it's a bag of poo.
