What War Really Was

Rating: 8/10 (10 June 2012)

Date: 9 June, 2012 -First Time Watch- This was my first time watching 'Saving Private Ryan' and it may be my last, for a good reason. The story is extremely sad but what makes it very sad is because it's true. Most of the things that occurred in the movie actually happened in World War Two. As a person interested in World War Two, I found this movie did an extremely good job depicting life after D-Day. The ending is extremely sad and it actually took my by surprise. I didn't expect that to happen. I expected some of it, but not all of it. In my opinion, this is one of Steven Spielberg's best films, along with 'Schindler's List'. Very moving and touching.
8/10
