Also if you like war stories that aren’t all about American there’s a YouTube channel called dark docs covers old war stores not just American but other countries military operations

Transformers 3 and up 1-2 are good

Agreed what I think makes saving private Ryan good is that it’s not all about the war it’s setting is WWII but creates a story using elements that really happened like the three brothers and d-day. Overall it’s just a story about saving someone during wwII not one side winning against another don’t get me wrong some American war movies can be entertaining and seeing actual events that happened like black hawk down being made into a movie those are fine cause they are actual stories.

Yes came out this year. Netflix need to promote their movies instead of always promoting their service show you have good movies too not just ones you’ve seen before

Agreed films can have great messages to help you in life if it’s by telling someone’s story or just amazing writing

Yeah being American and seeing all the war movies being very one sided pushed me from war movies but this one pulled me back in i need to see all the sides every side has different stories some tragic and some victorious

American war movies to me personally just try to make the military seem invincible I’m here for a war movie not propaganda war is tragic American films are the definition of America fuck yeah

I can’t wait to explore more movies I’m 18 and don’t know what to do with my life but I’m really starting to like cinematography they way it can tell you something or make you feel a certain way is so amazing to me

I haven’t watched the other adaptations I only know a bit about one don’t know witch one exactly

I’ll definitely check them out I would’ve love too seen this in a movie theater and a director I really like is Christopher Nolan his films cause of how he uses practical effects instead of overdoing it with cgi

Also it has color and has actual German actors although the original does have actual German war vets who helped make it more true to what they saw during the war

Yeah a weird reaction I just say he should watch it before he jumps to conclusions and about the point that it shouldn’t have been remade I have to disagree hard the old one is just that old they have a much higher budget which lets them use more practical effects

I haven’t I’ve just now started watching a lot of movies I started with classics like Rambo 1-3 and then I watched this cause I watched a windegoon video where he talks about the original one but I really like movies that are done in a artistic way with the cinematography or that require you to think like interstellar going to check out the one you recommended also going to watch the lighthouse I’ve heard some good things about it

Doesn’t help That I have a friend I grew up who just joined the military

Ones it ends and it starts showing you the actors names the silence is deafening really go to me here there are only a few parts in the movie where there’s no explosions no screams and no gunfire unless it’s the parts where they try negotiating with the French let’s everything you just watched really sink in

Ik this movie isn’t really like the original there’s definitely some scenes that are completely different or done in a completely different way instead of the hands on the wire fence it’s a dead solder hanging on a tree

(spoilers for beginning scenes)Sort of he joins against his parents wishes and also doesn’t wanna be left behind by his friends and his teacher basically is pushing them to join the war saying there parents would be proud to have a son fighting for the father land but you know how that is and once they get there it’s nothing like what they have thought of

Finished it not even 30 mins ago and I’m shocked I can tell it sticks with the watcher it’s done in a way it shows you the war in a terrifying yet beautiful way with its Cinematography and the acting is amazing.
