War movies have been major hits since the advent of cinema, with films about World Wars, Civil Wars, and even smaller wars along the way.

Revenge has been explored in a handful of great war movies, as can be seen in the likes of Braveheart, Spartacus, and Inglourious Basterds.

Harrowing tales like Come and See and big-budget affairs like Dunkirk are among the war movies that marked the absolute end of a specific period.
