Saving Private Ryan (1998)
By Joe Wilson
There's plenty of discourse about whether Saving Private Ryan is anti-war or glorifies war; what director Steven Spielberg is trying to "make" us believe about war. The carnage is here, for sure; lots of it. This war is terrible beyond belief; the men seem to be sent into impossible situations by clueless superiors; they die seemingly pointlessly by the thousands. War is hell.
