"I believe that the Scriptures were actually"
Manliest movies you've ever seen?
So gentlemen, what the manliest movie you've ever seen (also the manliest scenes) and what makes them manly to you?
The movie that comes to mind for me right now is a movie called Sin Nombre. It's a spanish language film about a gang member who tries to escape his gang and help this young woman he meets get to America. It's ultimately a tale of sacrifice.

I really like The Razors Edge. Changes my thinking about the world around me every time I watch it.
Also Revolver by Guy Ritchie. Love the idea and premise of the movie.

Can't do just one. In no particular order:
They Were Expendable - courage in the face of defeat. How do you behave when you know that you're going to lose? My favorite scene is the old boatyard owner, sitting in front of his shop with a bottle of whiskey, a 1903 Springfield, and a Smith and Wesson revolver. He knows that the Japanese will get him, but they will pay.
Bullitt - Steve McQueen defined cool for my generation. Women loved him and he had a great set of wheels.
We Were Soldiers - Nobody gets left behind. A true leader is the first in and the last out.
The Quiet Man - One of the Duke's greatest. A stranger in a strange land who "is a better man than you'll ever realize".
I add my vote for Band of Brothers - the story of men who were the finest light infantry in the world. These guys saved Western Civilization from the very real evil of the Nazis. If you don't think so watch the concentration camp episode again and understand that reality was much worse than you see in the series. My dad drove a Dodge Powerwagon ambulance across Europe at Uncle Sam's expense and said that no movie or newsreel could convey the smell of the dead that hung over Germany. Freedom was a Sherman tank and a Garand rifle.

Gran Torino is definitely a manly film.
Rambo: First Blood... Small minded idiots challenge his manliness so he opens a big can of whoop-ass with a giant knife.

My father passed away on Memorial Day this year. The entire family was at his house for one of his traditional cookouts by the pool. There was always plenty of food, drinks, laughter, and memories at his cookouts. This day was no different with one major exception, dad wasn't feeling that well and didn't even get out of bed until mid morning. As I am the oldest son, I was always the one groomed to step up and take over if dad was ever unavailable (which was rare). I got to their house…See More
