SAVING PRIVATE RYAN (first time watching + lots of tears)

How the hell do you watch Saving private ryan for the first time on your phone and not a big TV with surround sound

American Propaganda Movie!

It’s d day…

The Americans fuq’d themselves by not allowing an entire contingent of their force to participate where they could’ve been effectively used.

Fun fact: all the actors had to undergo boot camp and tough training for their rolls. Except Matt Damon. Matt Damon didn't even have to be on set for MOST of the shooting. So the resentment they had for private ryan was slightly real resentment for Matt Damon. Lol

FYI: Those helmets could not stop a bullet.

Hell yeah, brother.

You talk too much. Gb.

Please rewatch this in the proper way.

It's almost disrespectful to not view this in it's best way possible.

It is quite possibly the best cinematic and engrossing war film ever made.

Everybody mistakes Steamboat Willie for the stabby guy. But anyway Upham's "redemption" scene always gets me. He thought he was right earlier, then he thought he was wrong toward the end, so he tries to right the wrong in the wrongest way, but that last ambiguous right/wrong decision will stick with him for the rest of his life. Hardest part of the movie for me.

Natalie, stop overanalyzing movies AS YOU'RE WATCHING THEM.

Watching this movie on a phone fills me with rage. Downvoted.

Have you watched "Cloud Atlas" jet?

The opening scene Ryan goes to the grave of his brother, at the end he's at the grave of Capt. Miller's grave. His family is directly behind him at the first grave site, at the end, his family remains at a respectful distance, except for his wife who has no idea who Miller is. Ryan went home and never told anyone about that day in Ramell.

Did you notice who the guy was that stabbed and upum kills. He’s the guy they let go earlier in the fight

they are all the same. same guy killed wade, mellish, and miller

youre good

I think you have found your nich. reviewing drama seems a natural fit to you human compassion.

THEY LIVE. MIB SUNGLASSES MATRIX SUNGLASSES NO SPOILERS

I cant work out why Spielberg had the two german soldiers look so similiar. it confused pretty much everyone.

Innocence (Upham) is the first casualty of war.

fubar means fucked up beyond all recognition I think. Great reaction to one of the best movies.

You need to watch Band of Brothers

the time when men were honorable now my dad would tell me that soldiers would claim PTSD from getting yelled at during PT

vin diesel still looking out for family even in ww2

FUBAR - Fuc&&d Up Beyond All Recognition/Repair

The medic wasn't the one who went left. Pvt. Jackson, the sniper, was the one who went left.

damn u cut too much

It sucks that I can’t remember his name, but when the medic died it was an especially hard scene to watch for me. My mother was right next to me and she started crying.

If you've been to Omaha Beach, then you'll know just how absurd history really is. What was once a graveyard with thousands of corpses where blood would spill on almost every grain of sand is now one of the most peaceful places I've ever been to. The craters on the ground where hundreds of Americans got their arms and legs blown off are filled with local flora that children love to climb out of, the bunkers where German soldiers slept with Jewish blood on their hands look like the kind of place one would be able to live if a zombie apocalypse broke out, and the beaches where millions of bullets were fired into the ground look so untouched that you could imagine the last form of life setting foot on those sands could've been a dinosaur.

Whenever I'm told by a woman they want equality, I tell them to watch the first 30 minutes of this movie.

A lot of those "men" who stormed that beach, those who lived AND died witnessed horrors they've never conceived before. They were mostly boys really. Supposed to be 18 but a lot of people lied ab age to "do their part" a lot of people can barely comprehend what it must've been like to be there

Attempting to watch this reaction, is my own personal Dday. Gheeeeezus this was hard

In my opinion "Schindler's List" is Spielberg's masterpiece. If you decide to watch it, take my advice and have a whole case of tissues at the ready.

Love the critique of the "needless shot" by Spielberg. He'd be devastated.

dang yo talk a lot😄

"A bit somber . . . " Yeah.

Watching this on your phone is a damn travesty

I think the camera focuses on Upham so much because we are Upham. We're innocent and naive to the nature of war. We still have the luxury of thinking the obvious moral decision (letting that one soldier go) is the correct decision because we do not have to pay the cost of being wrong. This is why in the end Upham has to face the same man he showed mercy to and sees him fighting int he trenches again, Upham's mercy could be perceived as weakness, depending on your outlook, which signals to the audience "you think you know what is moral and right but you have not lived through war and weighed the cost between morality and the lives of your friends."

We do the same judging of cops when someone is killed. We behave as if we are qualified to judge, but they are in a constant state of anxiety and fear over losing their own lives and/or their mistakes costing the lives of their colleagues. It's easy to judge from our couches while watching the news under the safety provided to us by men like those portrayed in this film.

I get pretty sick to the stomach when I see or hear someone from France say something disparaging about Americans. Without the US and Britain fighting in France, and the Russians facing the bulk of the German army on the Eastern front, there is no France. French resistance would not have been able to repel Germany on its own. We are owed a debt from France, the least they can do is bite their tongues when they wanna be arrogant.

Jesus...between you thinking we give a damn about your annoying dog and you constantly yapping throughout the film, I officially have a headache. Thanks!😡

Love this movie, probably seen it around 100 times. But, this would have NEVER happened. The military would have NEVER sent a rescue mission like this for that reason.

More people died from covid than WWI and WWII

Watch Band Of Brothers, it is the best miniseries ever made on WW2

please watch hacksaw ridge

American folk suck at movies. City folk at the top. Lol 😂
