I really enjoyed
Lone Survivor
Fury
Whisky Tango Foxtrot with some issues
Inglorious basterds
Have yet to see Water Diviner and Hacksaw Rif\ge (but that's probably not what you're asking)
Loved Charlie Wilson's War many times.

I think he meant movies about modern conflicts, not modern war films in general.
Well, American Sniper, and Hurt Locker are awesome. I can't think of any others.
Oh, Black Hawk Down is pretty good, though I'm unsure in which war it's based.

Hacksaw Ridge is the most recent good war film from 2016.
There's also Hurt Locker from 2009, and Letters from Iwo Jima from 2006.

Hacksaw Ridge is overrated to me. And American Sniper is just plain bad.
The hurt locker, Fury are better.

It depicts how hard is to fight when you cannot recognize foe and friends. Where everyone in town has a fire arm and you don't know who is going to attack you. Also when your support is non existent. Nice movie.
Lone Survivor is fantastic. The directors job was to tell a story and he did just that. Raw and intense at every angle.
Also try Black Hawk Down, Zero Dark Thirty and American Sniper.

Inglorious Basterds is a Tarantino one I really liked.

Zero Dark Thirty and Kajaki the best of a bad bunch. American Sniper, Lone Survivor and Hacksaw Ridge are absolutely terrible movies.
I've heard 'No Man's Land' (2001) is worth watching.

Jarhead is probably the most authentic movie about the first Gulf War. You can really feel the soldier's frustration, and boredom, and longing for action.
Zero Dark Thirty is about the investigation on the whereabouts of Bin Laden, and his assassination by Navy Seals.
The Unknown Known is a dauting documentary about Donald Rumsfeld. It's really good, and not a bit partial IMHO. Whatever judgement you might have will not come from the director, but from seeing the man himself, his devious answers, and his smugness.
I saw No Man's Land when I was in High School, and although I could not find this film anymore, I had never forgotten about it.
You may also check The Wall, which is TBR in 2 month.
