a great war movie

Rating: 9/10 (15 August 2005)

this is one of the most realistic war movies i have seen. it captures the horror and drama of war through a very interesting plot. the scene at d-day was a scene that followed me around for awhile. it showed how unfair war can be. the men in the boats that were being raked by MG42s had no chance to fight back. they just stood there and got killed. then there was the wounded soldier that the three medics were trying to save. they had managed to stop the bleeding but a chance stray bullet hit the wounded soldier in the head, killing him instantly. this movie was a great war movie that everyone should enjoy at some point in their lives. there were some historical flukes like the reversal of the password "flash" followed by "thunder." they said "thunder, flash." otherwise, this movie was amazing.
