Saving Private Ryan is the most loathsome, insidious and vile movie in recent memory.

Guess I'll leave that one off my list of "must-see" films, eh?

OK, I'll bite, why?

Saving Private Ryan is the most loathsome, insidious and vile movie in recent memory. Two words. "Pearl Harbor"

Saving Private Ryan is the most loathsome, insidious and vile movie in recent memory.

It did nothing for me after the first 20 minutes. Got boring and aimless. I stopped the video tape at 40 minutes. A movie like "Vertical Limit" is much better. It's on HBO this month.

Truly it is terrible.

What did it for me was that this "incredibly realistic" movie let the rescuers go off on their mission without taking along a radio. Hanks' character was supposedly a seasoned combat veteran who surely would have known better than to make any of the multiple mistakes that he did.
