I have and I find APOCALYPSE NOW a masterpiece. It's not realistic but it sure as hell gave me the feeling that I was back in uniform. It's the psychic/spiritual side that so few war films can't/don't capture that AN and a few others (going back to 1932's ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT) do that makes the difference.
I think the THIN RED LINE is a good war film but misses greatness. I'll take something like THEY WERE EXPENDABLE or BATTLEGROUND over most newer films, especially jingoistic crap like PEARL HARBOR or TOP GUN.
