(1 - 27) of 27 OFCS Rating: 93% Fresh Page   1   4/5 "El desembarco en Normandía es un evento famoso de la Historia, pero nunca había sido fotografiado en esta forma."   Cinenganos   Alex Ramirez 3.5/4 "...Features the strongest character interactions of any Spielberg work post-Jaws"   Film Freak Central   Bill Chambers 4.5/5 "Spielberg has obviously poured his heart into this movie."   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null C- "Violent, harrowing, and horrific; you bet. This is not a movie to take your children to see, or even a date. And it's definitely not worth seeing alone. How the ratings board gave this movie an "R" rating is a mystery. Well, maybe not."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey 3/4 "A good movie, but, like Amistad, it has its problems."   Cinemaphile.org   David Keyes 4/4 "Ralph Waldo Emerson once said that 'war educates the senses,' and that statement has never been truer than when applied to Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   David N. Butterworth B+ "An instant classic."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 7/10 "Even the music score by John Williams, one of the most important ingredients of Spielberg's magic formula, is hardly memorable. The acting, on the other hand, is very good."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Dragan Antulov "Violence is not redemptive, and there is no grandeur in dying for one's country. All that really matters in this setting of hell is small acts of kindness."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 4/4 "For those who are willing to brave the movie's shocking and unforgettable images, Saving Private Ryan offers a singular motion picture experience."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 4/4 "With complete visual and aural technical mastery, Spielberg and Kaminski thrust us face-first into the fighting, and never let us back out for two hours and forty minutes."   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 4.5/5 "Saving Private Ryan is far from flawless, but it's an important movie. It shows what America was once capable of, how a threat to freedom and justice was met with resolve and bravery, and how a great victory came at great cost."   Netflix   James Rocchi 3/4 "The platoon is an unlikely combination of heroes, cowards and crusaders."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth 8/10 "Absolutely genuine, graphic, testament of the actual horrors of war."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 9/10 "...forces us to understand that every life is meaningful, and that every person can make a difference."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio 4/4 "Una de las experiencias cinematográficas mejor logradas y más impactantes de muchos, muchos años"   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 5 ""That old guy I'm honking at while I am driving to swing dance lessons went through all that for me? So I can drive my Honda and speak English and watch cable TV?""   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery 2/4 "The combat scenes alone make it a must-see, but I sometimes wished I could fast-forward through the rest."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest 4/5 "The movie's greatest strength lies in phenomenal performances that reach from the leads right down to the smallest supporting roles..."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 9/10 "The honesty and realism of some of the scenes of this film may forever change the war film."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper 4/4 "The standard has been raised."   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes 9/10 "Saving Private Ryan is one of the most brilliant pieces of film ever created. I don't think I'll ever be able to watch it again."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 4/4 "A stunning piece of work that aims and hits the audience square in the gut."   TheMovieReport.com   Michael Dequina 3/5 "It's forty minutes of steely violence and two hours of cliche-ridden flab."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves A "One of the best war films ever made. You don't just see it, you live through it. You survive it and after it, you feel like you know just a little bit what it is like to be in a war."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten A- "Saving Private Ryan is a first-class war movie with some absolutely brilliant, gut-wrenching moments, especially the beginning minutes."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 10/10 Read review   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf  (1 - 27) of 27 OFCS Rating: 93% Fresh Page   1
