Not recommended for the faint-of-heart - Saving Private Ryan Reviews
Speilberg is very good at telling mediocre stories brilliantly, and this was definitely told brilliantly. But ultimately it's still just a mediorce story. Way too long and way too gory even for the most desensitized moviegoer, I didn't learn anything by watching this movie (except that Spielberg needs a Film Editor to cut this movie by about 40 minutes). I understand the message-- war is bad-- but I didn't need to be subjected to this.
