greatest war film ever made

Rating: 9/10 (3 May 2005)

As i started watching this movie i was grabbed by the battle on Omaha beach because of Speilbergs vision of the scenario. As always Spielberg will get you excited with his movie and not let go, he will add in wonderful visuals and just simply amaze you with his realistic perspective.
Within the first scene i thought i wouldn't see another gun battle that great in my whole life, but likely enough there was an even better one at the end of the movie when they find Privat Ryan(Damon) and he says he wont leave his men behind. After Ryan tells them he is not going Hanks has to prepare for another battle, probably the most exciting and intense one ever.
One thing you have to take into perspective is that John Williams(composer of film) was one of the people who made this movie intense with his wonderful score to keep you intrigued throughout. I was happy for Spielberg when he one Best Director for the second time(previous for Schindlers List) but i thought this should have won Best Picture and Best Actor for Hanks. If you have not already seen this movie i suggest you see it asap because it is absolutely amazing. 10 out of 10
