Great film, where are the rest of the allies?

Rating: 10/10 (8 November 2000)

This is a film that really demonstrates the horrors of war and the depth of character needed to be a good soldier.
The battle scenes are truly harrowing. Spielberg has steered clear of glorifying any event, or of undermining realism with "cartoon"ish style violence.
My only criticism is that the film portrayed the war as an American/German conflict. Despite the D-Day landings being a joint allied operation, we only ever see American troops and equipment.
