Nov 7, 2021 · From emotional tales to hilarious satire, we've rounded up the best war movies on Netflix for you to choose from.
- The best Netflix war movies.
- The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die. As much of a feature-length series finale as it is a movie, The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die follows Lord Uhtred of Bebbanburg (Alexander Dreymon) on his quest to unite the kingdom that we now know as England.
- Black Hawk Down. Based on Mark Bowden's non-fiction book of the same name, about 1993 U.S. military raid in Mogadishu, Black hawk Down follows a large ensemble case through a rescue mission.
- All Quiet on the Western Front. The amount of confidence it takes to make a new movie based on All Quiet on the Western Front in 2022 is impressive, but director Edward Berger knocked this one out of the park.
- Operation Finale. World War II films have been popular since the early days of cinema. Acclaimed classics like "Saving Private Ryan" and "The Thin Red Line" explore the devastating conflict through key battles, but the period of time following the war's conclusion, when the world adjusted to the devastation and wrestled with the reality of the Holocaust, is just as fascinating.
- Green Zone. Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass worked together brilliantly on "The Bourne Supremacy" and "The Bourne Ultimatum," and with "Green Zone" they reunited to make another gritty, high-adrenaline story.
- A Private War. Although she had been delivering excellent performances since the early 2000s, Rosamund Pike's terrifying turn in David Fincher's "Gone Girl" earned her the most critical acclaim of her career.
- War Dogs. Todd Phillips started his career by making raunchy comedies like "The Hangover" and "Old School," so it was a surprise when he earned critical acclaim with his gritty take on "Joker."
- The Power of the Dog (2021) Director: Jane Campion. Cast: Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemmons, Kodi Smit-McPhee. It wears the brimmed hats and saddle-worn chaps of a western, and even indulges in the odd dusty brawl, but Jane Campion’s mesmerising psychological drama has its head and heart elsewhere.
- All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) Film. Action and adventure. A 2023 Oscar nominee in practically every non-acting category, this visceral adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque’s anti-war novel is actually built on the quality of its actors.
- The Irishman (2019) Film. Drama. Director: Martin Scorsese. Cast: Al Pacino, Robert De Niro. Yes, it’s long, but so is your all-day Peaky Blinders rewatch. And yeah, the much-ballyhooed ‘de-aging’ technology is not particularly effective when Robert De Niro still walks (and kicks) like a man in his late ’70s.
- Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022) Film. Thrillers. Everyone seems to be having a blast on this sun-kissed murder-mystery that sticks a gentle knife into the back of the careless super rich and the odd tech baron.
