Disappointing

Rating: 2/10 (5 September 1999)

With so many true stories from WWII out there, this feeble concoction seems a pithy excuse to show the horrors of the landing on D-Day. While the opening sequence is harrowing, the rest of the movie seems to drown in its wake. Also, Tom Hanks was terribly miscast (he should stick to light romantic comedy).
