Just saw Salvador yesterday. It's really good. James Woods and Jim Belushi do great job in this journalist-in-the-warzone film. I saw the MHM DVD and it looks like it was made yesterday! In a way it's better than the mighty Apocalypse Now, in the sense that it's more realistic, but both are great films.

Guns of Navarone (Greece-Peck, Niven, Quinn)

Battle Of The Bulge (Fonda, Shaw)

Is Paris Burning? (Francais-Kirk Douglas, Belmondo, Delon)

Dirty Dozen (Marvin, Bronson, Jim Brown)

Where Eagles Dare (MacLean novel-Burton, Eastwood)

Castle Keep (Italy-Lancaster, Falk)

Cross of Iron (Nazi POV Russia-Peckinpah, Coburn, Mason)

Operation Daybreak (Czech resistance, Tim Bottoms)

Cross of Iron is one of my all time favourite war movies. Up to a point I also enjoyed Saving Private Ryan, then it all went a bit pear shaped towards the end. Korean war flick Taegukgi was also good, but went heavy on the melodrama. Combat Zone (a vietnam movie shot in the U.K I think) was also o.k.
