In the honors of Veteran’s Day (11 Nov), Are you organizing the barbecues, military-themed gathering and thinking of a movie night. Are you going to watch the movies about wars, patriotic well-being and national heroics? Do you know the quote “Sharing is Caring”? Yes, That why I’m sharing a small list of movies that you can watch on Veterans Day.

The list I am sharing with you is based on our armed forces. Watch these movies on Veterans Day will give you a boost to serve your veterans. You can’t feel, the feeling of a war soldier. So listen to them after watching one of the recommended movies.

1. Saving Private Ryan (1998)
IMDB ratings 8.6/10

Following the Normandy Landings, a group of U.S. soldiers go behind enemy lines to retrieve a paratrooper whose brothers have been killed in action. I know it’s fashionable to trash successful movies but at least be honest about the trashing… Pvt. Ryan was fiction but it was pretty good HISTORICAL fiction. The details were well thought out and based on reality. The movie is breathtaking for me, to watch it yourself to find your breath.

2. Black Hawk Down (2001)
IMDB ratings 7.7/10

160 elite U.S. soldiers drop into Somalia to capture two top lieutenants of a renegade warlord and find themselves in a desperate battle with a large force of heavily-armed Somalis. This movie is a bit emotional to me but war is not an emotion. War is war and brutal. It’s an astonishing achievement that puts you right in the middle of the hellish horror faced by U.S. soldiers in Somalia in 1993. That’s the feeling, You can’t really imagine.

3. American Sniper (2014)
IMDB ratings 7.3 /10

Navy S.E.A.L. sniper Chris Kyle’s (Bradley Cooper’s) pinpoint accuracy saves countless lives on the battlefield and turns him into a legend. Back home to his wife and kids after four tours of duty, however, Chris finds that it is the war he can’t leave behind. This is the true story of Chris Kyle. Unbeatable sniper marksman with a confirmed 160 kills during the Iraq war. A character well portrayed via Bradley Cooper. Man, he beefed up in this. I can definitely watch more than once.

4. The Messenger (2009)
IMDB ratings 7.1/10

An American soldier struggles with an ethical dilemma when he becomes involved with a widow of a fallen officer. Brilliantly acted film depicting two soldiers whose job it is to inform families when loved ones are killed in battle. Harrelson has never been better and Foster more than matches him all the way. It’s emotional and engaging and genuinely painful at times. I had always thought how hard it must be to carry out such a job but had never really considered just what psychologically damage it could do long term to the person doing it.

5. Good Morning, Vietnam (1987)
IMDB ratings 7.3/10

In 1965, an unorthodox and irreverent DJ named Adrian Cronauer begins to shake up things when he is assigned to the U.S. Armed Services radio station in Vietnam. A lighthearted but deadly serious anti-war film, actually. This is, of course, a Robin Williams movie so that it is his shticks, brilliant and inspired, that makes it soar. The best of it, including the famous riff when he first gets on the air as the new Saigon DJ, is hilarious and breathtaking. There is a plot, sort of, as he goes through a rise and fall at the military radio station, but it’s more about his shining moments behind the microphone than anything else.

Final Words: Veteran’s Day is very respectful to us. Join hands with veterans to help them. These movies can only tell the fear they face. The veterans helped us to live a free and beautiful life without any fear. So respect them, help them physically, emotionally and financially. Remember these Veterans are our hero.
