Avis sur le produitSaving Private Ryan (VHS, 2000, 2-Tape Set, Special Limited Edition)

War is ugly, yet necessary For True Freedom Then & Now!

On June 6th, 1944, The Marines stormed the beaches of Normandy for one reason, to take back the strongholds that the Germans had on the coastline. We had to stamp out this sore on land and we had to do it hard and fast. I couldn't even imagine that this had to be done then, as well as I didn't imagine 19 years before I was born that I might not have had that chance of being born, but I did.

My own grandfather served in the Army in the Alaskan chain of islands for a tour and was soon to be shipped out to fight for the battle of the bulge as well. My grandfather became ill with a kidney infection and just missed his company getting shipped out. Thusly, my mother had a father at home after the war ended, and I actually did get born.

Saving Private Ryan is a very powerful film depicting a true to life situation to save a young Private who has to bare the burden of perhaps returning from the war and make some sense out of why he survived and his brothers all died in the call of duty. Private Ryan (Matt Damon) is first unaware of his brother's demise, but soon learns of the news about them all.

Director Steven Spielberg depicts a larger than life size story about the means to an end to lead a squad of men into a dangerous zone behind enemy lines, just to rescue this Ryan and get him back to his home. Captain John Miller (Tom Hanks) leads the unit whose orders are to track down Private Ryan return home where his mother is grieving the unimaginable loss of her three other sons to different battles of the war. The first unforgettable 20 minutes of SAVING PRIVATE RYAN realistically and horrifically depicts the Normandy invasion as Miller. his second-in-command, Sergeant Horvath (Tom Sizemore), and the others in the unit land at Omaha Beach.

Casting was probably the easiest part for the pre-production team, yet making the movie appear realistic was a definite challenge. Spielberg would have it no other way than true-to-life. That's why the film won so many academy awards.

I'll give this a 5/5 or 100% for its valiant men who died at the orders of their superiors for such an important cause they all finally related to in the end.

Saving Private Ryan (VHS, 2000)

Powerful story chronicling the journey of a squad of U.S. soldiers on a mission behind enemy lines to rescue a particular soldier, Private Ryan (Matt Damon). Ryan's three brothers have been killed in action, and under a humanitarian decision, it is decided that he must be allowed to return to his parents. Captain John Miller (Ton Hanks) leads this unit on their mission. It begins at Normandy with the American landing, The fighting and film footage is amongst the most brutally depicted that I have ever seen in a motion picture. Inevitably Private Ryan is located and saved, but at the cost of many other lives, including Captain Miller. This is a great "epic quality" production and definitely a must see!Lire l'avis complet...

Saving Private Ryan- good war movie

This is the most realistic war movie I have ever seen. Being a lady, I do not care for all the blood and gore. My husband, however, thinks it would not be nearly as good without it. We saw the movie at the theater and a couple of times on rentals. My husband would watch this movie every week if he had time. We did not have it in our collection and it is a very nice addition.Lire l'avis complet...

Brilliant!

I would find it had to believe that any American could watch this movie and not be moved to tears from the sacrifices made by Warriors from the greatest generation for our freedom!
This is a terrific movie with the fabulous cast featuring Tom Hanks & Tom Sizemore. Script, production, direction are all of the highest calibre...
