My girlfriend always makes fun of me cuz I cry during movies more than she does.
one thing that always gets me is the soldier/hero/toughguy praying or or doing something heroic, 5 seconds before he gets blow'd up.

In Kevin Smith's Fatman on Batman podcast he starts to cry when talking about the end of TDKR, and also when referring to Good Will Hunting.
At the end of Royal Tennenbaum's when Ben Stiller's character finally opens up about the pain of his wife dieing. Might have teared up a bit in The Life Aquatic when that thing happens that comes out of nowhere*.
I think the only really uncontrollable crying was at the end of Schindler's List, after the narrative is over and they show the real life survivors and their descendents at Schindler's grave.

Forrest Gump.
Out of all the "war" movies I have ever seen, the tiny 20 minute Vietnam chapter of Forrest Gump is the most realistic firefight scene I have yet to see in a movie. I have seen many, and no other so far captures the intensity and sudden adrenaline (and terror) of an ambush.
That chapter brings a lot of pride to me whenever I see it, and I do shed a few tears when I think about comparable experiences with friends. The actors in that movie put a lot of heart into that particular war scene, and I have a lot of respect for Hanks and Sinese.
Funny story, there was a guy in our company who looked like Lt Dan's twin. He took serious hell from me for our entire enlistment.

My father, a Vietnam vet, never saw a movie about the war that he thought was worth a damn, but said that the 'Nam section in Forest Gump nailed it.

have you ever seen any of the movies its making fun of?
That movie, (with its star studded cast and huge budget)'s recurring joke, was a joke about the mentally handicapped. I will admit RD jr. was great it in, but that movie is awful

I was joking about it being the greatest movie of all time.
I still liked it though.
I have seen Apocalypse Now, which was excellent, although mildly disturbing.

One of the few movies (especially ones that haven't been mentioned) that I will freely admit to "getting me" is the movie Rudy.
If you don't cry at any point in that movie, you aren't an American male.
Ohh, I should also throw out there the movie Harry Brown... Michael Caine is abso-fething-lutely brilliant in that movie, and it's just so creepy, and in some ways, painful to watch.

Forrest Gump is that one movie for me. Also, underneath hill 61 was a big one. At the end, when the kids trapped in the mine, and the CO makes the decision to blow the mine, instead of stopping everything, and despite all the effort, hill 61 was retaken in the end.

AI(the one about the robot boy from about 2004ish), Marley and Me, Forest Gump, Green Mile, Rudy, Second Hand Lions, I am Legend.
Those are just the ones that immediately come to mind. The full list is a lot longer.
I also have no problem admitting I shed Manly tears while seeing the Amazing Spiderman when the construction workers lined up the cranes so spidey could save the day.
