Summary: Incredible!
Review: I still don't know how the hell Shakespeare in Love beat out Ryan for Best Picture at the Oscars. It's a shame!!!!

Summary: This is not about the futility of war
Review: Despite what one reviewer wrote, Saving Private Ryan shows us that some evils have to be fought. War is terrible. But there are, unfortunately, rare instances when we must battle against evil. The soldiers of WWII fought for a reason.

Summary: Finally a realistic account of D-Day - Breathtaking
Review: This movie was so realistic you could almost feel the pain. Tom Hanks gave an excellent performance. So believeable. Attention to detail was evident in every sector. Even the rifles were authentic looking (if not real) for the period. Spielberg didn't dwell on the autracities, yet the point was made. War is war! Gut-wrenching action keeps you well on the edge of your seat through the entire movie. Not for the faint hearted! The silence in the theater was almost deafening as the credits rolled by. It was almost as if people were trying to catch their breath, while observing a moment of silence for those who fought so bravely, yet lost their lives.

Summary: Realism
Review: The overall realism of this film is spectacular! Everything looks and sounds exactly as it should. Do you know how difficult it is to accurately re-create a German Tiger tank? Great detail! And for those who think it is too bloody, do you think real war is any less brutal? I consider this film to be almost a documentary on the kind of personal sacrifices the average people of the day had to make.

Summary: This is a "Have to see for all!"
Review: This movie says what my grandfather never could. He went to the grave never telling me just what it was like other than "cold" or " we walked a lot" or some other pleasantry. It was after seeing this movie that it all clicked, what it was that he could never say. Yes, he did survive the D-DAY landing but it lived with him for the rest of his life. I now realize that he never told me about the way it was, I guess, so I would never see him as anything other than a loving grandfather.Spec4 Jack Randolph McClary, I hope rest in peace, you were a good man!

Summary: A perfect impression
Review: Last summer I visited Omaha Beach / Normandie. Walking on the beaches and between 10.000 graves, you wonder how it realy was those days. Spielberg and his cast gave me a perfect impression. The movie is a great illustration for the museums I visited in Aromanges (Normandie). The people who visited Normandie know that europe will never forget the price of freedom. Thanks to the movie, the whole world knows the price of freedom. This is no entertainment, it's history, a lesson.

Summary: Thank-you Spielberg
Review: This movie depicts the reality of war in a way no movie has ever done before. Saving Private Ryan shows all the emotions soldiers have in war time. Joy, sadness, frustration and fear. Spielberg does not glorify war he only tells it how it is. This movie can be used as an excellent medium with which people that have not been exposed to war can learn to respect and not glorify war and war veterans. Ryan is not a movie that is not for entertainment or to watch on a rainy sunday afternoon. It is a movie which documents the stupidity and futility of war. I would like to highly commend spielberg on his creation. This movie will hopefully help society respect war veterans a little more and help society see that war is not useful, war is not fun, glory and heros do not come from war but war is the ultimate showing of human weakness. Thank-you Spielberg.

Summary: You¿ve heard what they said, right?
Review: Genius direction. Dazzling effects. Brilliant acting (although I have no idea why Adam Goldberg was in. He's a terrible actor). And I think you've read how realistic it was, so I don't have to say anything about it. The only thing that could've been handled better was John Miller's death. It wasn't very sad, although it could have been so, very easily.

Summary: Just another boring movie
Review: This is probably one of the most overrated movies of all time.I'm so glad Spielberg didn't win the Oscar from Ryan.At least it proves there's still fairness left in the world.Do we have to see intense graphic violence in D-Day scene to get educated that war is cruel? I think not.So what happened next??? Our heroes talked,talked,talked, and talked about stupid stories no one wanted to hear.It's painfully boring.The time I spent watching Ryan seems like a century. *yawning*
