Lost Picture of the Year! How? God knows why...

Rating: 10/10 (28 January 2006)

No movie will ever stand up to the ranks over Saving Private Ryan. Just wow. Thats really all I can say. Flawless special affects, definitely look real. No other war movie goes into this much detail to a battle scene. I can feel for the souls of those lost, and sorrow for that poor guy with intestines hanging out screaming, ''Momma!'' You think thats so typical, but what would you scream when you were in his position? ''Crayola Crayons! Ahhhhhh!'' But seriously I sat on my couch staring at the screen 5 minutes after the credits were over. Shocked that the main character was killed. But I liked it. Mostly everyone died trying to save PVT. Ryan except wimpy clumsy Umpham (sp?) and Reiben which was a little surprising but made sense. The only flaw is that if you were a Captain in the US Army you would NOT blindfold the enemy and have him walk to somebody finds him. 1) He could slip the blindfold off and run in the direction of a German platoon. 2) He may come back to haunt you.
And if you just go out there and buy the movie (worth every penny, simply a classic!) and watch it you'll know what I mean. Thats the only flaw I know of, but it does'nt hurt the way I feel about the movie. I just get this vibe that everything that happened in the movie just feels right, and is perfect the way it unfolded. Saving Private Ryan will remain in my heart forever. As well as millions of other. This is Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks at their best. (and everyone else who had to do with the slightest bit of this movie.
