Saving Private Ryan. (1998)

"The moment you remember the past, the time you knew everything makes sense."

          The day after I've watched As Good As It Gets, it's time for me to watch some 90's actions films which is one of the most acclaimed films of all time. The film also was been directed by Steven Spielberg and stars Tom Hanks.

First, the movie started when an old man is walking with his family into a memorial funeral for American and French soldiers who died in Second World War and he stopped and cried when he saw a grave kneeling to it and went for him to go for flashback.

It was June 6, 1944 when American recruits have been consulted for their first time in war, young and inexperienced and was fighting French soldiers who are killing and slaughtering each other with no left for survival.

The Sgt who is assigned to help the soldiers to lead into war was Tom Hanks (Captain John Miller) in the movie who was apparently shocked and can't find any solution on how to cross the Omaha Beach with his soldiers been slaughtered and killed amongst their lives.

When all of his comrades have a chance to cross the border successfully, their first mission was completely been accomplished. But it didn't end there.

Back at Washington D.C., men at duty, and women who works for death letters who printed this for families, received a telegram that three of the Ryan family got killed in action in war internationally and this was received at first by their General George Marshall who later on got to go visit the mother of four and was been delivered about the sad news. But apparently it wasn't over.

Back at France,  Sgt Miller received a new mission for their commander that they've got to rescue one of the last survivor of the Ryan family who happens to be in France fighting with their opponents. The plan after became one of their most hardest battle yet.

***
After days of preparing for their mission, Capt. Miller needed some help for his team to accompany him to rescue Private James Francis Ryan (Matt Damon) and bring him back to safety. With the help of his  six soldiers,
   
      *Sgt.Mike Horvath (Tom Sizemore)
      * Pvt. First Class Richard Reiben (Edward Burns)
      * Pvt. Stanley Mellish (Adam Goldberg)
      * Adrian Caparzo (Vin Diesel)
      * Danny Jackson (Barry Pepper)
      * Irwin Wade (MEDIC)

who were all soldiers and last one who is a guy who serves the American military who speaks French, Timothy Upham. (Giovanni Ribisi)

All of them assembled. Best soldiers to be brought upon but what comes next were all 🔫🔫😱😱.

Every one last of them tried to survive to look and search for Pvt Ryan and seemingly the first try to find him is too unlucky. The first one they've got is a false one. He wasn't the Pvt Ryan whom they're looking for because he has  brother who is studying in grammar school. He was shocked to hear the news but was been confronted at last.

At the same placethey've looked for the false Pvt. Ryan, a source said that he got to be dropped in the drop zone of Viervielle. And not to this place they are staying now. But unluckily as they got out of the village, a family of four was trying to make some help when Adrian Caparzo got shot and killed by a sniper shot. He died a few minutes later.

Afterwards, they've walked again and located a few soldiers who knows about where Pvt. Ryan is and someone said that he was in the town of Ramelle guarding a bridge from Merderet River.

By the second time, they've saw a town to help them past Ramelle, andthis time all of it were swarming of French soldiers. Miller and his team proposed a plan to attacked them, silently and it becomes accomplished when all of them cleared the area but one of them had died a natural death. Wounded at first but Wade had struggled to be alive.

In anger, the remaining soldiers were all trying to kill the French soldier who killed Wade whose named is "STEAMBOAT WILLIE." Due to Miller's consent he let him get away, blindfolded but Horvath was to furious accept it. Due to the unexpected death of their friend,  Miller's story became the background of their conversation which told about his life as a preschool teacher. Afterwards all things became calm and they went and came upon arrival to Ramelle.

They have been greeted by their own fellow allies who are also paratroopers and knew that Ryan was on them. And now, by that time they knew and felt that he is the one they're looking for. Miller introduced himself to Ryan and tell him about the sad news. Ryan was too angry and he said that he was unfair to live his life after his brothers were killed in the war.

When Miller offered to take him back him, he refused and that makes the other American soldiers to get angry and tell their stories that two of their comrades died tried to rescued him. And that makes him felt sorry for them for what he had said.

Afterwards, Miller just got the news from the paratroopers that French soldiers were going to be in the village soon and that makes just them to prepared for the battle.  Two of them groups clashed to wait until they come.

It took days for them to prepared and wait until unexpectedly, numerous French soldiers attacked the village. For they are lacking of allies, most of them got killed at combat.


Horvath, Jackson and Miller were killed while Miller survived the attack. He went to the bridge to bomb it but he was shot by "Steamboat Willie". He was killed before even Ryan got to save him and Upham who saw the shot killed Willie while three of them survived.

Reiben. Ryan. and Upham.

Up until the end of the story, it goes back to modern day when the old man who was kneeling is Ryan not Miller and telling him that he is really a good man. He stands up and salutes Miller for his bravery.

The end.
