American Sniper

Navy SEAL Chris Kyle earned the nickname &quot;The Legend&quot; for his service in Iraq. With <a href="https://www.biography.com/military-figure/chris-kyle" target="_blank">160 confirmed hits</a>&nbsp;during the conflict, Kyle became&nbsp;the most dangerous American sniper in history. In 2012, he turned his story into a memoir, titled&nbsp;American Sniper.&nbsp;Two years later, director Clint Eastwood transformed&nbsp;it into a blockbuster film starring Bradley Cooper. Tragically, Kyle was slain in 2013 at a shooting range while trying to help a Marine suffering from PTSD. The film memorialized Kyle, portraying him as a hero the year following his demise.

But how accurate is&nbsp;American Sniper? The film made several significant changes, such as exaggerating some of Kyle&#39;s opponents and completely fabricating others. In reality, Kyle did make a stunning 2,100-yard shot, but it wasn&#39;t to end his rival sniper, Mustafa. And, despite the drama of the infamous opening scene, Kyle never shot a child.

Even more significantly, controversies surrounding&nbsp;Kyle&#39;s veracity extend to his memoir, in which he exaggerated&nbsp;his medal count. A jury also found Kyle guilty of defamation for fabricating&nbsp;a story in which he&nbsp;punched&nbsp;Jesse Ventura.&nbsp;American Sniper&nbsp;has earned a spot on some lists of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-worst-movies-of-all-time" target="_blank">worst movies of all time</a>&nbsp;for its harsh depiction of all Iraqis. Fans, however, praise the film for its nuanced depiction of Kyle&#39;s struggle as a sniper, claiming it ranks as <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-movies-of-all-time" target="_blank">one of the best movies ever made</a>. Kyle himself claimed&nbsp;he never felt any regret over pulling the trigger.

WWII

WWII has been mined so aggressively by filmmakers&nbsp;you&#39;d expect the mine to have collapsed&nbsp;and been deemed unsafe for human habitation decades ago. Yet, WWII was <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/ww2-european-theater-stories/philgibbons" target="_blank">so extensive</a>, involved so many countries, continents, and people, and so thoroughly impacted the shaping of contemporary global society, the pull of its tractor beam is impossible to resist for those on the prowl for <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/people-who-hid-from-the-nazis/aaron-edwards" target="_blank">potent human drama</a>.

List of Good World War II Movies That Are Worth Watching

War TV & Film

War movies are both popular and common, but they tend to deal with the same small batch of wars. World War I, World War II, the Civil War, Vietnam, and the Iran/Afghanistan conflicts have all been the basis for numerous films. Many of those films have been great, a few even earning recognition as all-time classics. These wars are frequent cinematic fare because people are familiar with them, so there's a natural interest level.Of course, there have been many, many other wars over the centuries. Although historically important, the average person doesn't know as much about them as, say, WWII. The following movies are all about wars you've likely heard of, yet probably couldn't explain in much detail if asked. And that's okay - history is vast! How integral the war is to the stories can vary, as does the degree of historical accuracy. Nevertheless, each of them puts a lesser-known war into the spotlight for a few hours.

Akira

Anime enthusiasts who cherish masterpieces like Akira often seek out other titles that echo its profound themes and stunning visuals. This fascination with futuristic worlds, societal destruction, and cybernetic advancements fuels an ongoing attraction to narratives that push the boundaries of imagination. The appeal of anime extends beyond mere entertainment; it offers an immersive experience into worlds crafted with meticulous detail and philosophical depth. It captures the essence of human nature in a time of technological evolution.

Where do you go after watching Akira? It&#39;s not an easy question to answer, as even many anime similar to Akira likely fail to live up to the animated masterpiece. Akira redefined animated movies in more than just Japan with its amazing and innovating animation. Aside from becoming a hit in Japan, it served as a gateway for future anime fans the world over.

After you finish both of Akira&#39;s anime and manga versions, you probably want to find other anime like Akira. Though they may not measure up to Katsuhiro Otomo&#39;s opus, plenty of similar titles exist out there for fans to devour. Cyberpunk elements, philosophical conundrums, and slick animation all mark the signs of an anime with a similar vein to the 1989 classic. Akira may occupy a class all its own, but its influence presented a chance for these titles and series to shine in their own ways.

World War II

No one goes to watch a Michael Bay movie expecting historical accuracy. But the chasm between&nbsp;Pearl Harbor&nbsp;the movie and real Pearl Harbor facts, as shown in <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/pearl-harbor-photos/chwang" target="_blank">photos from December 7, 1941</a>,&nbsp;is clear. The film contains an armada-sized number of errors about the military, including the wrong planes,&nbsp;nuclear-powered subs before the advent of nuclear power,&nbsp;and magical 21st-century radio technology.And then there are&nbsp;all the plot holes, like how Ben Affleck broke US&nbsp;law by joining the Royal Air Force (RAF), and how the movie claims the climactic scene was the turning point&nbsp;in a months-old&nbsp;war that continued for several more years. Plus, the movie ignores 1940s racism while treating Cuba Gooding Jr.'s character as a token, and neglects&nbsp;many WWII&nbsp;contributions from women. In contrast, consider <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/saving-private-ryan-facts/anncasano" target="_blank">films like&nbsp;Saving Private Ryan</a>,&nbsp;which was so realistic, it reportedly <a href="http://www.warhistoryonline.com/world-war-ii/spielbergs-war-saving-private-ryan.html" target="_blank">triggered veterans' PTSD</a>.While historians have found numerous historical inaccuracies in&nbsp;Pearl Harbor, at least one thinks some good may come from the movie. Professor&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sfgate.com/entertainment/article/Hollywood-vs-history-Historians-say-Pearl-2915944.php" target="_blank">Bruce Reynolds</a> said,&nbsp;&quot;The best thing that could happen is that people will see it, be entertained, and come away interested in why this stuff happened.&quot;Another history professor,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.smh-hq.org/gazette/pearlharbor.html" target="_blank">Nicholas Evan Sarantakes</a>, had a slightly less optimistic take: &quot;Another Pearl Harbor movie will come along sooner or later, and it will most likely be better.&quot;&nbsp;Fans of Michael Bay movies might still appreciate the film for its drama or special effects, but it's time to admit Pearl Harbor&nbsp;barely gets any history correct.
