Band of brothers is the one to see, but it's not a movie. It's 10 episodes of one hour each, I think... Will give you plenty of time

Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down, Band of Brothers, etc. Theres more, but can't think. Saving Private Ryan was possibly my favorite.

And i also love a russian WW2 seioes "unkown parallel" its good, you got russians, you got germans, you got snipers, you got blood and dead people, and you got a heroic "FOR MOTHERLAND" yell.

Cold mountain and pearl harbor are more of love stories, though there is some action.

Enemy at the gates is good. So is the Patriot. So is windtalkers. U571 is great. Tora tora tora is a decent one about pearl harbor that is more action, but a little older
