    What War Movie Has the Best Theme Music?

    In my opinion, without a doubt, Zulu. Love Great Escape and Bridge over the River Kwai too. Platoon is pretty cool as well. Let's hear it....

    music in war movies

    Not simply a theme song, but the entire score to the movie Glory is really fitting and beautiful.

    The movie itself is wonderful, but with that music, especially as they storm the fort, wow!

    One of my all-time favorites.

      It has to be..............

      'The Great Escape'

      a simply 'iconic' soundtrack...........


      Regards Richard.
      Always looking for Luftwaffe Kampfflieger related document groups. In particular anything to Kampfgeschwader 2.

        Sir Ron Goodwin was the war movie score maestro

        633 Squadron and the Battle of Britain are the best.

              My favorite film of all time....I totally agree about the theme/soundtrack, although the score of "Band of Brothers" is also great....
              I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.....

                  The soundtrack for Henry V..................the original version, of course.

                  Music by Sir William Walton.

                  Bliss.

                    Tyler Bates' score for the 300 is a favorite.

                      "battle of britain" is worth a listen, but i have a real soft spot for " where eagles dare". it builds up to a real crescendo.

                        Not a "film" as such but the theme music to "The World at War" haunted me when I was younger!

                            Both "The Great Escape" and "Band of Brothers" scores are on my favorites list.

                              I have to agree, the opening scenes of the Battle Of Britain, with the theme music and the magnificent line up of He 111's, it just doesn't get any better than that....
