Something about the first picture was familiar. But the second one does not. Hopefully the third times the charm!

Definitely have not seen. Though it's tugging a vague memory string... So I may have seen a trailer.

It's possible. There is a thread about this movie (circa 2011) though it doesn't have a lot of posts in it.

I remember there was a POW movie with Christian Bale. I don't remember name though. After a quick scan of his movies, maybe Rescue Dawn? I don't remember Steve Zahn being in it. But I watched it a long time ago.

Correct. And congrats on recognizing a blurry Christian Bale.

I remember being impressed with the movie. But I think they could have used a better title.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
Man.... This is tough. I haven't been watching many movies.
Here's one that I haven't seen. It came up in an email discussion with some friends. I checked, however, and there was box office numbers. So it did get released... somewhere.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
Nope.
As for clues, that may be tough. I haven't actually seen the movie. But the director is well known (well, I'm familiar with some of his work).
Hint: The water is significant.

Given the hints, I'd have to guess that it's Stephen Chow's The Mermaid. It's available on Netflix (Canada).

You would be correct. I haven't decided whether to add it to my "Want to see" list. I have liked what I've seen from him (though, that's only Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle).

We probably need tgb to join us. My knowledge of older westerns (heck, even newer westerns) is pretty much non-existent.

I'll throw out Once Upon a Time in the West, but I'm very unsure on this one.

That's one of the 2-3 that I know. Pretty sure this isn't it.
Edit: Of course, it could be. I'd only know if it was one of the handful of actors that I'd recognize.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
Boy I'm confused. I thought this was a Western. But aren't those British uniforms? And is that a pyramid in the one picture? And that last picture looks like a Mexican church.
I have no idea WTH is going on.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
I've only seen one of the Zulu movies, I think. And it was ages ago. But when I saw the British uniforms, that was my first thought. But then I got confused by everything else.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
Yeah, I had no clue until the fifth picture and only then did I start to suspect Zulu.
The sixth picture though, that's definitely My Cocaine which seals it for Zulu.

Re: Name that movie....(possible 56K warning)
Correct.
If a very young Michael Caine hadn't tipped it, the next/final shot would have literally given away the title.
The film can be streamed on Tubi.
