Breath-taking...Passionate

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2001)

3 hours...3 short, heart-breaking, elating, passionate, & captivating hours...
This movie was not only breath-taking, it was acted with so much passion and feeling; the actors made it very believable. The cast was top-notch and so outstanding. I don't see any room for error with Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale, Josh Hartnett, Alec Baldwin, Jon Voight, & Cuba Gooding Jr. As for the love story, it was creative with a tragic twist. I heard radio DJ's saying how the movie focused for like an hour and a half on the love story before Pearl Harbor was bombed; yeah, well, it was the same way in Titanic. Personally, I feel this movie was 100% better than Titanic.
As a movie-fanatic and fan of US History, I found this movie to not only be unique and intriguing, but touching and sad. I definitely recommend 'Saving Private Ryan'. It was a movie I intend on going to see again & again & buy...everyone should see this movie; to remember "the day that will live in infamy".
