I'm with you on this one. I couldn't stand the gunfight scenes in '12 Strong' when they would shoot hundreds of rounds without a single reload, and then make 100 yard head shots from the hip while at full gallop on a horse...
I enjoyed Blackhawk Down alot, as well as Act of Valor, We Were Soldiers, SPR, Platoon, and of course the series like Band of Brothers, Generation Kill, etc.

A Bridge To Far is especially moving in this family due to my in-laws being young children when US Paras jumped into their village in Nederland to liberate them. The people of Nederland still remember their liberation and are grateful for it. My wife grew up 1500 meters from Germany.
I thought Dunkirk was great, but I’m a huge Christopher Nolan fan.
TENET was supposed to come out the day before my birthday, was massively excited for that. F#ckin Covid.
Others mentioned these from the past 2 two years:
Six Days
Siege at Jadotville
Danger Close
