The best war movie I have ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (13 August 2010)

Man was this good movie. I can't believe I haven't seen by now, but now I have. I love this movie. The realism makes you feel like your with them in the battle, the conversations they have feel real, and the emotional strength it has is huge. My favorite movie from Steven Spielberg used to be Jaws, but this has defeated it. As for Tom Hanks movies this is so far my second favorite. My favorite will always be Gump, but this is still a great film. The first 24 minutes is in real time. These minutes are one of the most gruesome things I have ever seen. People die left and right. People have their guts hanging out, arms and legs are blown off, it really is a powerful scene filled with realism. Acting performances are all great, but the best as expected is from Tom Hanks. Overall this film is piece of genius.
4 stars out of 4
