    Buffalo Soldiers, with Joaquin Phoenix, was good, too.

    Maybe Top Gun, or Spartan (Val Kilmer). These aren't top movies, naturally, just good ones.

    War comedies:

    Kelly's Heroes
    The Americanization of Emily
    What Happened In the War, Daddy?
    1941
    Father Goose
    Donovan's Reef (not a war movie, but a war veterans' movie)
    Good Morning Vietnam
    Dr. Strangelove (a "Cold War" comedy)
    The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming (another "Cold War" comedy)
    King of Hearts (debatable to call this a comedy)
    The Heroes (1973)
    The Secret of Santa Vittoria
    M*A*S*H (the movie, not the series)
    Catch-22
    Operation Petticoat
    Mr. Roberts (and there was a sequel, 'Ensign Pulver')
    ...probably should include 'To Be or Not To Be' (original 1942 version)
    Operation Mad Ball

    ..I will not include 'The Great Dictator' - it has a classic and justly famous scene, but I found overall it really dragged, wasn't nearly as good as (for example) 'City Lights' or 'Modern Times.'
