Saving Private Ryan

I would give this 6 stars if I could. Everything about it is so incredibly enthralling and realistic, it literally feels like you're in the middle of the war and fighting alongside them. I probably didn't breathe for the entire Normandy sequence, all of it just felt so real, and the whole movie feels no where near three hours long, it captures your attention so much that you completely forget how long the film actually is. The final shot of the American flag was a lil odd but that was such a minor thing that the rest of the movie completely made up for. Also why does everyone hate on Upham so much?? Yes it was annoying that he didn't help Mellish but he'd never been in any combat before and I guarantee 90% of the people hating on him would've done the same thing in that situation
