simply the best war film out there

Rating: 10/10 (16 February 2005)

I cant fault this film in anyway,shape or form. Absolutely brilliant. Tom Hanks once again proves that he still is one of the best actors of our generation and there's also a little part for vin diesel. Now just recently i have started my war film collection and now own most of the best ones out there, but still this film has to be the most accurate and exhilarating one of them all. Private James Ryan's three brothers have been killed in action and to save the heart ache of their poor mother (even more) Captain John Miller and his squad of highly trained soldiers are sent further behind enemy lines to find Ryan and return him to his mother safely. As you can probably gather not everything goes to plan otherwise the film would be over before we finished our brews, faced with impossible odds, the men start to question their orders. Why are eight men risking their lives to save just one? Surrounded by the brutal realities of war, each man searches for his own answer- and the strength to triumph over an uncertain future with honour, decency and courage. If you like this and lets face it if u don't then u don't like a brill war film i recommend band of brothers, which is a mini drama series on a para squad in WW2. Tom Hanks also present that too.
