An original and moving film with extreme passion and story telling

Rating: Null/10 (12 February 1999)

Steven Spielberg, my most respected film-maker has just taken himself way above the rest, by a million miles. One can see the the passion and excellent story telling/direction qualities of this film. The audience feels as if they are a part of the action. Its documentary-look makes us believe it is real, we perceive it to be real with the excellent and original style of camera work, the high quality sound effects, and the entire authenticity of the look and design in every way. Spielberg focuses on showing us the casualties of war - as if we were there and seeing helpless 'lives' of people diminish in many disastrous ways in combat. Watch every detail of this film, listen to all the sounds as you will actually feel like going through D-Day. Especially the last scenes, as we wait for the Nazi tiger tank to approach. Its deep engine sounds will make your stomach tremble as if it was the TREX approaching. This film is a master piece of film work - a milestone in film making. Email: mirage@world.net
