“Saving Private Ryan is simply the greatest war movie ever made, and one of the great American movies.” – Stephen Hunter, Washington Post

Internationally acclaimed by critics and audiences alike, Steven Spielberg’s Saving Private Ryan is a powerful, realistic re-creation of WWII’s D-day invasion and the immediate aftermath. In the European theater of WWII, Army captain Tom Hanks leads his men on a dangerous mission to retrieve a missing soldier whose brothers have all died in combat. Along the way, the men engage in some of the most harrowing and visceral battle sequences ever put on film. Faced with impossible odds, the soldiers question their orders. Why are eight men risking their lives to save just one? Surrounded by the brutal realities of war, each man searches for his own answer—and the strength to triumph over an uncertain future with honor, decency and courage. Featuring an all-star cast including Matt Damon, Paul Giamatti and Tom Sizemore, and winner of 5 Academy Awards including Best Director, Saving Private Ryan is a spectacular, expertly-constructed action movie with intelligence and heart, and is considered one of the greatest war films of all-time. (Dir. by Steven Spielberg, 1998, USA, 169 mins., Rated R)
