The most moving film I have ever seen.

Rating: Null/10 (18 August 1999)

This was the most incredibly moving film I have ever experienced. I say "experienced" because this is not a film that you "see". You "see" 2010. You "see" Star Wars. You "experience" Private Ryan. From the beginning to the very end of the show, you are hopelessly attached to your newly acquired best buddies in the world who are real people with fears and aspirations and attitudes and personalities and everything. This is not the G.I.Joe hero story where the good guys always just manage to not get shot. This is war, as real as I can imagine it: up close and very, very personal. If you have served our country, thank you for whatever it is that you did FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. If you know somebody that was in a war, especially WW II, please go and experience this movie. I guarantee you will see them in a light that you may have never seen before.
My rating? Definitely on the drama / action must see list
