Will leave even a WWE wrestler in deep thought and pity after watching. Rare is the breed of the movie that speaks not just to an occasion but rather to the soul of the matter. This film is to motion picture as Hamlet, The Wealth of Nations, 1984, etc is to written literature, their message exists as an irrefutable truth.

Private Ryan is one of a number of brothers, all of which were killed in combat. It's Tom Hank's job to find him and bring him back home before an even greater tragedy is reached and a mother has no sons. The action, story, and characters are top notch. Great Classic.

Perhaps one of the more accurate depictions of what it was like to fight in Europe on, and shortly after D-Day. Spielberg pours on the schmaltz in the film's denoument, and it's practically unnecessary because you've already got the lump in your throat that he was going for.
