Its good but like U-571 something is missing....

Rating: 10/10 (12 August 2002)

I thought that saving private ryan was a really good film and it should have won the best picture oscar. But one thing gets on my nerves with Hollywood world war 2 movies.
For people who didnt know BRITAN AND FRANCE WERE ALSO IN THE WAR AND WON THE WAR AGAINST GERMANY WITH AMERICA! America did not do it all alone as many brits and french soldiers died on the Normandy beaches along with the Americans. Same as U-571, as the British also got the code machines. Plus i just want to say this now- all British people dont speak with a nice posh accent, in fact about 90% of the population don't! I just want to see a Hollywood picture with a normal Englishman, not a stupid posh one oh and I would also like to actually see some Englishmen in World War movies.
Anyway, back to the movie, it is very good. I've actually been to those places were they are set and I believed that they were actually filmed there! Acting was superb and as in all Speilberg's films the directing was top notch.
So it was good film but would have been better if the English were credited with the beach invation because my Grandad did it and I don't see any record on this film (visually) about the risks that the Brits took as well as the Americans.
Overall 9/10.
