I haven't seen Hurt Locker yet, but it would get some pretty stiff
competition from that list. Two films may not belong on the list, however,
300 and Pearl Harbour. If you want a comercial film in place of Pearl Harbor
you could include The Longest Day simply for the wonderful fly by, top view
filming in some scenes. I would also reccomend Force Of Arms with William
Golden even if it is a love story. Hell, if we are into love stories why not
include A Farewel to Arms with Rock Hudson, although it's not quite as raw
as Force of Arms, and perhaps more of a drama.
