The movie I watched was Saving Private Ryan. This movie told the story of an assignment for a group to find a soldier named James Ryan and send him home to his mother from the war. He was being sent home because all of his brothers were killed in combat so it was a rule in World War 2 that if all of your brothers were killed and you were the only one left, you got to go home from war. The group had may troubles and casualties finding Private Ryan. It showed the reality of war in a interesting way with an engrossing story that kept me drawing in the whole time. In the end they had many battles with different German forces and even some POW encounters. The group was successful in finding Private Ryan but when they found him he simply stated that his fellow soldiers were the only brothers he had left and that it wasn't fair to leave the out and down a man just so that he could go home. He ended up staying and along with the troops that were searching for him, helped defend from German forces.
I thought this movie was terribly awful and yet amazing at the same time. It really showed the brutality of war and I think that is what made it hard for me to watch. The story line was really good but still all of the shooting and stabbing that went on made me sick to my stomach. I would give this movie a 7/10 for how much I liked it, a 10/10 on story line and how well it was produced, and a 10/10 for how much I think I would like it if I was okay with war and killing movies.
Here are some pictures of my favorite parts of the movie:
