While I thought all of these were good (except for Apocolypse Now) I think Platoon was brilliant and one of the BEST War Movies out there ever.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
What is the best Vietnam War movie

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
Not saying it was the best, but also Hamburger Hill was a Vietnam movie.
I liked platoon. Funny you posted this I read about Apocalypse Now on wiki yesterday. Martin Sheen almost had a heart attack during it, and he was really struggling with alcohol at the time.

Yes, Hamburger Hill was not a bad movie. Based on a true story I think as well....I forgot about that one.Ricky said:
Platoon is not just the best Vietnam move, but one of the best movies I've seen. Really sobering stuff.
Casualties of War was also incredible too, and equally disturbing and objective.
They really put heroic all-American propaganda movies like Saving Private Ryan and Pearl Harbour into perspective.

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

Pearl Harbor sucked. The only scenes that were well done was the bombing of Pearl Harbor. It annoyed me they had two crummy actors who play the heroes, one who makes you falsely believe the Americans played a "huge" part in the Battle of Britain. Only 7 Americans fought in the Battle of Britain.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Born on the 4th of July was a good movie (I read the book) but the majority of the story DOES NOT take place in Vietnam, so it does not count.KneghtRyder said:

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I saw Apocalypse now once and I thought it was way too wierd and not realistic. However, maybe cult like stuff really did go on like that.Skel said:

Best DVD buy ever though. I paid $5.99 for Tigerland at Target and the movie is pretty good.BluEyes said:
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
