Heartbreak Ridge is a classic Eastwood military movie.

Kind of a political/military movie but the 1964 original Manchurian Candidate was ahead of its time.

Stalag 17 and Paths of Glory are a good watch.

Bat 21, Bridge on The River Kwai, Spartacus are all other recommended movies.

The movie Downfall is about Hitler's final days in the bunker but has some great but poignant street fighting scenes between the Russians and what was left of the German army(mostly kids and old men).

If you're looking for a Twilight Zone esque military style movie check out The Final Countdown.

Same. I think a remake would work well.
