Top Six Vietnam War Films
Hamburger Hill
The most remarkable traits of this realistically detailed chronicle of a crucial, bloody Vietnam War combat is that it steers clear of Stallone’s right-wing machismo in Rambo and of Oliver Stone’s metaphorical meanings (good versus evil) in Platoon.

Top 5 vampire films
INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (1994)
The “epic” of epic vampire films. Director Neil Jordan captures the lush decadence and erotic fervor of the novel, infusing the film with rich, dusky tones. The big budget is well used to bring each period and place to sharply detailed life, and there is no skimping on [...]
