Okay, I gotta defend "Kelly's Heroes". Sure it was a bad war movie, but, much like "Hogan's Heroes" had nothing to do with WWII except setting, Kelly's Heroes is a movie about greed and being a misfit and anti-war and some other stuff thrown in too. Donald Sutherland's character (Oddball)is clearly a hippie, which is SO over-the-top and anachronistic for the setting. Oddball happens to be one of my favorite movie characters of all time. For years I thought Sutherland WAS Oddball. The movie could be set in just about any conflict situation, they just happened to have chosen WWII. I don't eat donuts for their health food characteristics, and I don't watch Kelly's Heroes for its historical accuracy. I watch it because of Clint Eastwood and Donald Sutherland and Telly Savalas and Don Rickles and Carol O'connor and a bunch of other really talented actors who could get together and make a movie that is a fun way to kill some time (no pun intended).

As far as worsts go I think they've all pretty much been mentioned. I loved Das Boot, but then I also loved Saving Pvt. Ryan. I think my all time favorite has to be Band of Brothers. Long enough to really develop the characters and show how battle ultimately wears a man down. What was really special was the interview segments that introduced each segment.
