Outstanding scenes

Rating: 10/10 (30 June 2008)

In every aspect of this film, from the writing by Robert Rodat to the production of every scene, there is mastery. Saving Private Ryan has multiple WWII scenes that although not all historically correct, all outstanding. I watched this movie with my fiancÃ© and we both were extremely impressed with the whole movie. The opening 27 min. Omaha Beach scene proved well awarded the best opening scene as well as the whole movie with the 5 Oscars, 50 something other awards won and another 50 something nominations for various awards. The story line of a mission to save a fellow comrade is one that hits so close to home for many families these days and it really gives them hope that if there loved one is still over in Iraq, they might too be saved. From the actors like Tom Hanks and sexy Matt Damon, to the small details in every scene (or big like the 40,000 gallons of fake blood for the opening scene), it was just a mind blowing movie that really makes you appreciate everyone fighting for our freedom.
