The Best World War II Movies According to Stacker
On Sept. 1, 1939, Germany invaded Poland, forcing the second world war in 25 years. The massive and lengthy war resulted in an estimated 75 million deaths before it came to an end on Sept. 2, 1945, with the surrender of the Japanese. In the years since, there have been hundreds, if not thousands, of movies made about World War II. These projects cover the war from every angle—that of Allied and Axis soldiers, civilians, resistance fighters, prisoners of war, Jews, and other persecuted peoples; the list could go on. It would be impossible to watch all of these movies, so Stacker rounded up the 50 best WWII movies of all time.
