Pros: plot Cons: blood and gore
I saw this movie because of my boyfriend, he's into all that war type stuff. I figured, what the hell maybe it'll be good. I may have a weak stomach, but i think anyone could get sick from this! The scenes were really good and i enjoyed the plot, but...

Pros: intense and exciting Cons: not for everyone
One of the few movies that i have seen more than once in a theater. I have a hard time thinking that this movie would be half of what it is on the small screen. The theater added to the emotion and trying to transport you to the scene. It was...

Pros: great reallistic fight scenes Cons: they had a mistake
This is an excellent movie. Anyone should see it except little kids. It is really gory so small kids should probably stay away till they're older. The gore makes it realistic though. Eight men set out on a mission to save private ryan. His brothers have...

Pros: Tom Hank's acting. A real life story that changed America's military. Cons: 3 hours long. Too much green all over the place. Matt Damon billed as star and only did a cameo appearance.
I know that Military men are the most honorable men walking our streets here in America, and that their challenged but unmeasurable bravery have kept us from losing our freedom in many circumstances, like both World Wars, the Gulf War and the Vietnam...

Pros: realism, cinematography Cons: gore
I recommend this movie for people who want to understand the reality of war without experiencing the danger inherent with the actual experience. This movie is not sugar-coated and does not contain a gloriously happy ending, but is very helpful for a...

As soon as I saw the preview for this movie, I knew I wanted to see it. I really enjoy movies based on real life stories. Tom Hanks was excellent in the leading role. The beach scene was hard to watch with all the blood, but that was a small portion...

Pros: Great movie Cons: Not for the younger ages
I rented Saving Private Ryan because I like war movies. Tom Hanks did a superb acting job. The other actors were great also. I would watch it again.
