Really makes you appreciate what all of the people in the service had to go through

Rating: 10/10 (3 July 1999)

My granddad was in World War II under many of the same circumstances as the characters in the movie. Seeing the movie really helps me appreciate what he went through. I really can't say enough good things about this movie! Tom Hanks should have gotten best actor and the movie should have won best picture. I can't believe so many people on this site gave it one star. I don't know what movie they saw, because the one I saw was spectacular! This is a must see! Beautifully directed, wonderful cast and a very emotional story. Don't miss this movie!!!!!
