A must watch for every Military fan and WWII enthusiast

Rating: 9/10 (4 December 2016)

For me, this was a long pending movie to watch. It was recommended to me over and over again, both online and IRL and now I know why.
This movie's opening scene has to be among the top 3 of all time, considering a large proportion of this movie's budget went towards crafting the opening sequence.
Steven Spielberg's direction is near perfect and filmography is brilliant.
Tom Hanks does a brilliant job portraying the hardships of the battlefield, all the while leading a team to search for the last surviving sibling, in accordance with the 'Sole Survivor Policy' of the US Military.
The plot unfolds beautifully with some critical twists adding to the effect.
The Pre-climax and Climax bring the curtains down really well, tying up all the loose ends. The movie ends with a powerful message that is sure to dampen even the toughest of hearts.
Overall, a well scripted movie backed up by an incredible cast and an exceptionally talented director.
This movie gives a perspective that other War movies rarely depict.
Would surely recommend.
