Band of Brothers is probably the best overall depiction of war I've ever seen.

Platoon's a good mention, best Vietnam war movie ever made. Apocalypse Now, Full Metal Jacket, and The Dear Hunter are also great ones in that setting.

Letters From Iwo Jima is a major departure from most Hollywood war movies, and was the movie of the year. Real emotional resonance about the fate of a group of, mostly, normal men that few people give a thought to.

In foreign affairs Stalingrad and No Man's Land are both excellent, and way underappreciated.
