My Favorite of all WW2 movies.

Rating: 8/10 (24 June 2002)

It is hard for me to believe that THE THIN RED LINE did not recieve any oscars. The cinematography in this movie was amazing, I'm talking about jaw dropping shots. It was a movie with no flaws, great acting, directing, and some of the best shots ever in any movie. I loved the battle scenes. I thought they were so realistic, and very emotional. The philosophy in the movie is what sets it apart from the other WW2 flicks, and Saving Private Ryan's shallow storyline. SPR is not better than TTRL. Not even close, I slept on this movie and It's a big mistake if you havent seen it, and still choose not too, just because it recieved such little recognition. This is a classic in my mind, and will be a fine addition to my DVD collection. I hope you take this review seriously, go and watch this picture, if you appreciate great movies, then you wont be dissapointed. **** 4stars
