انقاذ الجندي ريان

In "Saving Private ryan" the characters are so stereotyped("the brave"; "the cute";"the rebel";the timid")that the critics and audience should be ashamed of.Why we should forgive the director's mistakes just because he is "Steven Spielberg"?even some of the gruesome scenes of the film seem stolen from a real war documentary,SPR is a lot more inferior than the deep"The thin red line" and to give every award of the planet to Spielberg is just ridiculous and childish,you just make him more spoiled and rich!.

There is a distinct difference I always notice with war movies compared to action movies. In war movies, no matter how many rounds are fired or how many explosions occur, every single bullet and every single explosion seems significant. In your typical Hollywood action movie I almost wholly ignore bullets and explosions because they are usually of no consequence. However, in war movies every bullet holds my attention as does every explosion. "Saving Private Ryan" cast a particularly strong spell on me where I was totally drawn in. "Saving Private Ryan" grabbed a hold of me so tight I could barely breathe. From the very beginning it had a death grip on me; just letting up a tad in the middle and resuming its bear hug until the final scene.

Visually, the best WW2 movie. In other ways, far from the best. The movie is loaded with errors and falls into demonizing the German soldier and praising the American. A few examples, far from the reality the combat scenes show the Germans acting like cattle without ANY strategy at all they just run and shout, one funny part is the behavior of the German tankers, they drive in a ruined village in a VERY narrow street, like they have never heard of ambush! -One starts to think if the script writer has ever heard of the capabilities of the German panzer crews, SS-Captain Michael Wittmann attacked and destroyed 48 armored fighting vehicles alone in a single action! The most absurd part is the -"Macgyver/Rambo scene"-when Capt. Miller and friends start to throw the mortar grenades slaughtering a few dozen Germans. The most unforgivable error is that there were NO SS-units with Tiger tanks operational in Normandy at this point of time. This movie is way overestimated.
