Patriotic Movies For Your 4th Of July Holiday

The 4th of July is on Wednesday, and every right-thinking American has a solid barbecue and fireworks bash on their mind. However, sometimes mother nature has a way of torpedoing those plans with a rude rain storm. Now, you have your backup plans. Here are the 10 greatest โ€œpatrioticโ€ movies to chill with to celebrate your independence.

  • โ€œIndependence Dayโ€ โ€“ The planetโ€™s saved by two American heroes. USA! USA!
  • โ€œThe Patriotโ€ โ€“ Itโ€™s not factually accurate, but it sure does kick ass.
  • โ€œTeam America: World Policeโ€ โ€“ Never before have marionettes elicited such national prideโ€ฆor such a quality sex scene.
  • โ€œPattonโ€ โ€“ You wonโ€™t see a better patriotic speech on film.
  • โ€œForrest Gumpโ€ โ€“ Ever Baby Boomer pop culture event and reference in one convenient film.
  • โ€œBorn On The Fourth Of Julyโ€ โ€“ A Vietnam Vet comes back to a country that he feels betrayed him.
  • โ€œYoung Mr. Lincolnโ€ โ€“ Going off-the-board here, with a Henry Fonda classic that shows Abraham Lincoln before he was charged with keeping the country from ripping itself apart.
  • โ€œRed Dawnโ€ โ€“ Patrick Swayze and his teenage friends protect us all from the Russians.
  • โ€œCaptain America: The First Avengerโ€ โ€“ The entire Marvel Universe started with beating the crap out of some Nazis.
  • โ€œMr. Smith Goes To Washingtonโ€ โ€“ Another classic, this time with Jimmy Stewart, who plays an idealistic senator who refuses to play into the โ€œgaming and schemingโ€ that goes on in Washington.

Surely, there are othersโ€ฆmaybe even better ones. Let the arguing begin.
