World's No 1

In the present scenario, many of us don’t know anything about the ancient civilization, culture, wars and other histories at that time. It is hard for us to get a virtual image of those times, but some great movie directors like Stanley Kubrick, Ridley Scott, Peter Weir, Wolfgang Peterson and others have given the best celluloid’s of ancient history. These movies help us to understand the nature of the problems faced by the society during those times. I have listed some of the great ancient war movies of all time below. Each is brilliant in its own ways. I have also added a bunch of other world war/war related movies in this post as well.Watch them and have fun!!
