There can be only two: 'Apocalypse Now' as a philosophical take on the war, and 'Platoon' for its immediacy.

Taxi driver isnt a movie about the Vietnam war.

Also, i really think that platoon and apocalypse now are the two best movies of Vietnam ever, eventhought they are very different between them.
