Worst film of the year.

Rating: 1/10 (5 January 1999)

If you are hoping to see something along the lines of "Saving Private Ryan", save your money and stay home.
I do not see how anybody can say this is a best picture (except for those fools that give out the Oscars).
This is a war movie. The commercials show only action sequences. The problem is, the action sequences in this 2.5 hour epic are only enough to fill a few minutes of commercials.
If you were hoping for an action filled World War II movie about one of the bloodiest campaigns in the Pacific Theatre, then this is not the film for you.
