I cried during

"Hard Boiled"
and
"The Killer"

because they were the two greatest action film masterpieces id ever seen. THEY WERE SO BEAUTIFUL :)

"Big Trouble in Little China" also brought tears of joy to my eyes because of how cool Jack Burton and the Chinese stereotypes were portrayed

The Passion of the Christ
Gladiator
Braveheart

There are a lot of movies that don't even have sad parts per se but the music and stuff gets my emotions up and sometimes I find myself teary eyed for reasons I really can't explain.

Graveyard of Fireflies (I couldn't eat without feeling depressed for a week and that movie was a cartoon)

Million Dollar Baby

Never saw it coming, but the ending was pretty emotional and just plain sad.

armageddon (actual tears), cinderella man (didn't expect it to be so emotional, almost had tears), click (almost), house of sand and fog (almost). That's it i think.

Band of Brothers - especially the "Bastogne" episode, where he finds the nurses scarf, and the last episode, where they are playing baseball, and the narrator (the actor that played Captain Winters) is describing what happened to everyone after the war - and it fades right into the real Richard Winters talking about it.

Forrst Gump and Big Fish also.

I'll add some more:
-Miracle (that hockey movie)
-The lord of the rings movies - especially in the 3rd one, when Sam and Frodo went separate ways - that scene was gayer than anything in brokeback mountain, but I'm not saying it's a bad thing
-The killer and a better tomorrow - the sad irony in those movies really got to me
-Grave of the fireflies - never has a cartoon made me weep so much
-the lion king

I teared up a little in Password:Swordfish when Halle Berry was putting her clothes on.
