It's right up there with U571, The Imitation Game and Battle of the Bulge, but Midway isn't too bad and Band of Brothers is very good (especially the DVD version which has an extra disk of interviews with the surviving members of Easy Company). I think Pacific (made by the same producers as Band of Brothers) is pretty good as well, but it's based on an attempted merging of three separate books about people who never met rather than a single "family" like Easy Company, which makes the story a bit fragmented.
