Saving Private Ryan is a 1998 American epic war film directed by Steven Spielberg and written by Robert Rodat. Set in 1944 in France during World War II, it follows a group of soldiers, led by Captain John Miller (Tom Hanks), on their mission to extricate Private James Ryan (Matt Damon) from the war after his three brothers are killed in battle. - Zábava
I remember when this movie came out, there were interviews with WWII veterans who were part of D-Day, and one question that was asked was how realistic was this scene. One veteran said the only thing missing from this scene was the stench.
No matter what side of the war youvon on, if you served and somehow miraculously made it out with your sanity and morals intact, i salute you.
Nothing more like hell on earth than a battlefield...
Sorry my man they are Army soldiers, Marines in the Pacific..
Rangers lead the way.
He knew that. He was just talking about the general attitude of those in combat.
I think he was speaking based off of his own experience as a Marine. And yes, while the Marines were mainly conducting amphibious assaults in the Pacific, there were Marines present on D-day. I believe they were working on the USS Texas and there were some detachments on board ready to be deployed to reinforce the Rangers if need be.
I had the chance to see this in the theatres when SPR was released in 98', it was an amazingly immersive experience. I was really curious about what I was about to see because Spielberg had released Amistad the year before, and I was aware of his background, his father serving in the war and all. I knew it was going to be special just because of Speilberg and his team, but I didn't expect how spectacular it was and is. I once heard a story of some kids had vandalised a WWII statue or something like it. This was around the time SPR was out in theatres and the judge sentenced the kids, with other caveats I'm sure, to see this movie and learn the stories of american soldiers and their sacrifices.
3:31 The real reason that first-born, only-born, sons were not drafted into the war was that at the time almost all financially elite families only had one son, or one heir, to their vast family fortune and thus they used their money to change the drafting process to work in their favour.
Really fucked up.
The same people probably called muhammad ali a draft dodger.
My father was the eldest of three brothers and he enlisted in the Marines after Pearl Harbor anyway. Served in the Pacific from 1942 through 1945. My grandfather was so pissed that he enlisted (Grandfather was a farmer so my father would have been the only other family he would have had to help on the farm during that time.) that he refused to even speak to my father until 1948.
You are in error about this matter. Please see my post of today, 9/18/23.
Semper Fi. This Marine understands. When I saw this the 1st time I have to say I cried. My great Uncles were in WWII. Not in the D Day campaign but served nonetheless. That generation, they gave what they had to give. Especially in the east.
One thing is always missing from every movie, and that is the smell, flesh, gunpowder, vomit, and blood. Once you experience it, you never forget it, enough said.
The Americans landed on Omaha and got the worst of it. They had no idea there were, I think, 1,000 war-hardened Germans waiting there (the Nazis were deliberately misled about where the Allies were landing, but they had defense up and down the coast). The French and British suffered losses, of course, but the Americans got ripped apart, as seen here. I can't even f'ing imagine being in this. I always say this generation is called the greatest for a real, damn good reason.
Sorry, I said French, but they were Canadians. I think there were some French mixed in with the Brits after Dunkirk, but don't quote me on that!
Bad intelligence in destroying those mg bunkers.Pathetic planning somewhere that led to much unnecessary slaughter..
WWII vets said this scene was 100% accurate.
I shipped out to Army Basic Training a few months after this movie was released in theaters in 1998. Whenever we had down time during training, which happened a couple of times, the Drill Sergeants would march us into the Post Theater and we would watch SPR. One of the senior ones was a Vietnam combat veteran and was a short time away from retirement, and he told us that the violence and intensity of the movie come close to real combat, but real combat is much worse. I did not experience combat situations myself during my military career, but I imagine that he was right.
Crazy how the plan itself was considered genius, yet fuck all went wrong several hours into the invasion.The main reason being the bombers kept missing their targets to give adequate passage to airborne and grounded units. The germans were confused, but so was everybody else.
HAPPY 25TH ANNIVERSARY TO THE BEST AND MOST REALISTIC WAR FILM, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN!!!!!!!!!
MY YEAR 1998!!!!!!!!!

5:50 something is wrong with this guy- smiling and laughing
This scene was based on true stories from soldiers that were there…
No Marines were at Normandy only Army. And behind enemy lines the 101st and 82nd Airborne jumped in just before the beach landing
Almost 133,000 army soldiers from the United States, the British Commonwealth, and their allies, landed on D-Day, and 0 Marines.
Army did the bulk of the fighting in the pacific as well, they just don’t go on about it.
And?
When women say,men aren't needed, what are men good for
Very realistic
The U. S. armed forces have no policy prohibiting siblings, if they request to do so, from serving aboard the same ship, on the same military installation or in the same unit/company
Thats why they are called the last great generation
And we are the last generation to see this last great generation alive.
Marines?
More like rangers
Ryan Sean Peter Ryan Daniel Ryan Alle Ryan Ahldrin Ryan Three bothers
They’re rangers not marines.
USA lost in WW2 - 418 000 people. Young guys.
Russia lost - 27 000 000 in WW2 and they won it!
That's true. If Hitler had not turned toward Russia I wouldn't be here. We in the west faced 50 German divisions and had our hands full. The Soviets faced 160 German divisions. And won. Most Americans are not even aware.
@@davidhutchinson5233 Because they rewrite history and forget the names of the heroes.
American boys who died in Europe. Allies from European countries are no different from the Russian guys. The Americans are sure that they won the war. A young nation with an instinct for domination. My city in Russia is over 300 years old. United States, whole country - 245
Mediocre . 🫤
