BORING. That is all.

Rating: 1/10 (21 January 1999)

Unbelievably hyped-up, this pathetic attempt to make THE (unbias) War Movie, in my opinion, FAILED.
Steven SPEILBERG: Mission FAILED.
After 2 hours of irrelevant, continous, meaningless fighting, bloodshed and gore, one finds Saving Private Ryan BORING. The first scene of battle is effective, but when this is followed by another 2 hours of similar material, well, you're not left with much.
With the first and last scene being an American Flag waving in the wind, one realises that indeed, "this is another load of American patriotic RUBBISH".
Lacking a story-line, this is a hollow tree.
2/10 for Saving Private Ryan.
