Grand and heavy! But only to see once!

Rating: 6/10 (13 December 2001)

To all of those who like to see a very well done war movie, realistic and faithful to reality. The Best: The performances, directing, the script and the realism of the war sequences might be for many hard, but... that's the way it was! The Worst: The movie was very long and it's one of those movies you only have to see once, which isn't necessarily bad.
During the hard World War II US soldiers risk their lives, beyond enemy lines, to save private James Ryan, (brother of a bunch of killed brothers on action) that should be saved before his mother loses everyone she has in the world.
Once more, and not as a big surprise, Steven Spielberg directs this movie majestically, I'm used to that, his muscle for tense and dramatic and action sequences was once more set in motion, wholeheartedly and greatly directing a remarkable cast lead be Tom Hanks. If to you Tom Hanks seemed to you exactly equal to himself again, that's because he is, but that's just me because I believe that Tom Hanks is nowhere near that great actor that everyone makes of him and that's not the only one. America seems to `canonize' some Hollywood actors like Jim Carrey, Tom Hanks and Will Smith, I like neither of them, specially Will Smith, who bugs me immensely, as of Jim Carrey he doesn't bug me that much, what bugs me the most is that Carrey always makes roles of jerk or idiot. Carry on Ryan, the cast his great once more, Matt Damon again proves to be a great actor again.
After all this, Saving Private Ryan, is still a must see, wasn't it one of the greatest movies ever made!
My verdict 7 out of 10
