Ministry and Sisu seemed to be highly recommend by y'all. Going to start with those two. Appreciate everyone replying with suggestions!

Should be a natural response
Blues Brothers. Not sure if any of them DIE, directly, but I've got a feeling not all of them survived off-screen.
I hate Illinois Nazis…..
I'd say it counts, those two in the Pinto definitely bought it when their car hit the ground from hundreds of feet in the air.

V for vendetta.
Antagonists are not explicitly Nazis, just racist and homophobic authoritarians preaching religous hate against immigrants.
I see nobody mentioned Sisu here.
It's an absolute banger about a Finnish badass that finds gold in Nazi occupied Finland.
HAHAH
He killed a Nazi by throwing/using a landmine like a frisbee!!!
Sisu is so much fun!!
And there's two of them! And what feels like basically no dialogue and just stunt / set piece after stunt.

Definitely Iron Sky, with Inglorious Bastards as a close second.
Sisu is pretty good too
I think I liked Sisu better than IN. Tarentino is good, of course, but they always feel the same. Sisu was so unexpectedly good, I can't help but recommend it all the time.
I'm shocked that no one has mentioned the Rocketeer.
It's a cult movie about an out-of-work pilot and his mechanic who find a jetpack. They want to use it to try and fly more airshows and get out of debt. But the mob wants it back because they stole it for a Hollywood movie star, who's secretly a Nazi spy. And the FBI wants it because they want it back to keep it out of the hands of the Nazis. Meanwhile, the dude is just trying his best to survive, and accidentally ends up being a superhero.
It's such a great movie, if you liked Indiana Jones, you'll like the Rocketeer.

The Blues Brothers
Saving Private Ryan goes pretty hard once they're off the beach.
Same vein as Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers feels to me like the defining WW2 peice of cinema. But its less about killing nazis (which is kind of incidental) and more about bros loving bros.

Ministry of ungentlemanly warfare.
I LOVE this move! It is so much fun! :D
Some of mine or my wife's favourites in no particular order
- Iron sky
- Iron Sky 2 (even better than the first in my opinion)
- Yoga Hosers
- Kung Fury
- Captain America
- Hellboy (though to a lesser extent than the rest although Nazis are the main villains)

Danger Five.
I'm taking out the Sit Down Shotgun, so sit down and watch it. And above all, Kill Hitler!

Once you're done with the movies, might I recommend you look into a video game where you get to shoot some Nazis yourself?
The "Wolfenstein" video game series might be a good starting point

Inglorious Basterds would be up there for sure.
Inglorious Basterds
IRON SKY
Nazis from the dark side of the moon return to Earth in flying saucers to finish the Third Reich.
It is glorious

Jojo Rabbit!
- Saving Private Ryan
- Fury
- The Big Red One
- Force Ten From Navarone (it is a sequel to The Guns of Navarone, which is also great)
- The Dirty Dozen
- Patton
- Memphis Belle
- Victory (While no Nazi’s are killed in the movie watching them get humiliated is nice) It is sometimes called “Escape to Victory”.

Indiana Jones
Dead Snow is a fun one.
Fury and Overlord. The former is gritty as hell the latter is more sci-fi. Both are fantastic.

Not necessarily a movie but Band of Brothers. Or for a lighter take then obviously Inglourious Basterds
Well, it's more of a comedy tragedy, but in Life Is Beautiful 1997 a guy trolls the Nazis for years and then his son makes it out of the concentration camps.

Kung Fury, short, insanely over the top, leans into satirizing the 80s steroid-action movie machismo, just plain fun movie.

There's a terrible movie about a ww2 squad that finds an ancient artefact which transports the to the future where the world is dominated by giant, nazi, alien spiders. Helmets and everything. It goes right through terrible and out the other side. I feel like it would be a good choice. Can't remember what it's called tho, I was very hi at the time.

The Dirty Dozen has a very cathartic finale, nearly on the level of the cinema fire from Inglorious Basterds.
Freaky Tales is a relatively new one that is essentially a collection of short stories that link together; what links them together is how the various protagonists all end up kicking the shit out of a group of neo-nazis.
They've already been mentioned, but this last April 30th I got access to a theater. Me and a group of friends watched Ministry if Ungentlemanly Warfare immediately followed by Sisu. Great way to spend a holiday. I'm not sure which I love most between the two they're very different and both are stellar
