Caught this again the other day, great film, and one of those movies that's aged really well - improved with time, if anything, due to the number of *real* aircraft involved and, of course, the stellar cast - Olivier as Dowding in particular hitting just the right note.
Can't think of any other film that comes close, certainly nothing made recently, although Memphis Belle is pretty good. CGI just can't compare with the genuine article.
