In the Last Great Invasion of the Last Great War, The Greatest Challenge for Eight Men was Saving... One.

Rating: Null/10 (7 August 1998)

I just have one word....brilliant. I've seen lots of good war movies like "Platoon" or "Galipoli", but this one tops them all! Tom Hanks is absolutely brilliant, and will definately get nominated for an Academy Award for best actor, if not win. "Saving Private Ryan" will get many award nominations. Steven Spielberg is a pure genius. I think he's the best director ever. He has definitely out-done himself this time. "Saving Private Ryan" is filled with lots of gore and graphic violence, but it depicts war perfectly. I would recommend this film to anyone who thinks they can handle it!!
