I saw this movie in the theater when it first came out. I was a young man in my 20s.. wasn't at all prepared for the depth of this movie. The final scene, where James asks his wife to tell him that he's led a good life, that he's a good man.. asking himself if he lived up to the promise Captain Miller told him to live up to.. never before or since have I experienced anything on this level of profoundness in any movie. There was not one dry eye in that theater when the movie ended. I sat in my car for awhile before going home, thinking and contemplating my own life. I was very deeply moved and shaken to my core. I still get that feeling whenever I see this movie

But, when the lights came on, there was an older man with his WW2 veteran hat on, he had tears running down his face and was visibly very upset, I lost my shit. I’m not a person that cry’s very often. But, I can’t take an old man crying.

Wanted to add, that the director worked with veterans throughout the movie. From what I understand, there were many scenes (including the first one) that were actually more grotesque and bloody. The veterans watching these initial screenings said it was too realistic and had the director cut it down. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, of course. Either way since hearing that tidbit of information however many years ago, I've been curious to know what the original scenes looked like.

World War II Veterans that were there on Omaha Beach on D Day and went to see this movie when it came out, had to leave the theaters because of that scene, according to them, that is the most accurate portrayal of what happened on Omaha Beach, it was exactly like that and it lasted for hours before they finally got off the beach. 2400 American soldiers, most of them in their early 20s, died on that beach.

One part that is sad that people dont realize is at the end when he is looking at the cross and his wife comes up and reads " Captain Miller" on the cross she then looks at him confused because she has no idea who Captain Miller is . WHY we ask? This confirms that he NEVER told any of this amazing story to his family or even his wife. For years he has kept this part of his life personal and until that moment didnt share any of it . Why its sad is that a lot of ww2 vets with heroic and inspiring stories went untold because of their ptsd or unwillingness to grieve properly and share the amazing ordeal they went though. We both young and old NEED to hear all the stories of the brave men and women who fought so that we not only can appreciate their sacrifice, but never forget what they did. So there are not many left but if you have a grandparent , uncle, dad, mom, anyone in your family that was a ww2 vet sit down with them and talk before its to late. Let them know they have your support and you want to hear their story so it can be appreciated and told for generations to come . :-)

7:24 Those two Wehrmact soldiers who were surrendering, and they tried to say something but the Americans didn't understand them and opened fire on them. You may think they were ordinary German soldiers, but in actuality, they were saying, "Please! Don't shoot us! We're not German! We're Czech! We didn't kill anybody!" That gives us a clear recognition that the Nazis had conquered a bunch of countries like Poland, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Yugoslavia, Greece, and others. Not only that, it gives us recognition that most people from those conquered countries were *forced* by the Nazis to join the Nazi army or they would be severly punished and sent to death or concentration camps. So sad. :(

Perhaps he didn't have the licensing, out of respect because the rescue mission is all fictional or just to make the name more marketable. Eitherway, the one brother who was shot down over Burma was listed as KIA (killed in action). However, he survived in the jungle for awhile before being captured by the Japanese Army. He survived the rest of the war in a Japanese POW camp. No small feat. Over a year after his mother was told he had been killed he walled back into her house.

Some people seem to think there's a competition between allies as to who suffered more, the reality is all suffered, may we never reach level of butchery again. Thank you again, love from the States ❤️

Your reaction is so touching, young lady - it is appreciated by all of us, I believe. My own father was in the So.Pacific (a medical technician), so I would like to see you react to HACKSAW RIDGE at some point.This 2016 film deals with Desmond Doss, a Med-tech who didn't carry weapons, at the battle of Okinawa ( he was what is called here a conscientious objector, but wanted to serve regardless). The Pacific portion of the war seems to be overshadowed most of the time by the European theater of (the) war. It is just as graphic, and realistic as ...Ryan. My uncles did serve in Europe, though; they all came home alive, and struggled with PTSD the rest of their lives. Thank you for your channel.

Another great reaction video. You need to do a comedy after this one. 🙂 *This film was based on a true life event, where a mother of four sons fighting at war, was presented with four death telegrams, and four folded American flags.

Not to take anything away from the incredible bravery and sacrifice involved in this historical beach landing, but I don't think most of my fellow Americans appreciate how much the Russians sacrificed in WWII. The numbers are simply staggering compared to anyone else involved in the conflict.

My Grand Uncle served in two wars (WW1-WW2) was traumatized from the things he's seen from the trenches to the beaches, came back home an alcoholic to forget all about it. He only cracked up some humor to make himself laugh the pain he's lost. Lost his Friends who he knew from the Boot camp and it hurt him, he was Friends with 18-23 yr olds and only became more depressed losing the ones that were under his platoon in D-Day. There was one thing that my Grand Uncle had always done, Humor is best medicine to forget the chaos around you in the trenches. May god rest my Grand uncle's soul you magnificent soldier. And thank you for viewing this movie, this movie was always my favorite.

Even with years of planning and preparation D-Day was a risky battle and had it gone wrong, a far more bloodier battle. Coming from Russia, a war film you should also watch is Enemy at the Gates (2001) about the Battle of Stalingrad (now called Volgograd), the largest and bloodiest in all of history. Where even young Soviet teens had to fight or die.

Omaha beach was a total blood bath because of poor planning and execution, for starters, planes dropped 13,000 bombs in order to make it easier to storm the beach but the planes missed all of the targets, the tanks needed for support never made it to the beach since they sank in minutes and were never tested properly in such deep seas and many soldiers were dropped off miles away from the beach half drowned and sick, the ones that did make it like in the beginning of this movie were completely out numbered and had little chance. Even Tom Hanks character mentions were right where were supposed to be but nobody else is. All the planning went out the window in seconds. Juno beach went a bit smoother and they took less casualties.

To be honest as an American, when I look at statistics of deaths during ww2 by country, it was more a war between Russia and Germany than it was a world war in the amount of lives sacrificed, but when it come to politics, everyone was involved. but as a American with Polish ancestry i find that the beginning of the war was an atrocious and horrible decision by both sides and karma was rightly paid in full to both USSR and Germany for what the governments did to Poland and everyone else Germany personally persecuted because of the joint decision both USSR and Germany made to invade Poland. Life came full circle and both rabid dogs gnawed at each others bones until each were but dust. left only by the grace of god were the righteous and the conscientious to re-claim civilization.

I'm an old guy and I keep losing my comments with my big fat fingers. I started watching reaction videos when I realized you are like grand children watching TV with me. I classify this group as "what happened next Grandpa", with so many questions. I love it. When I figured out how to comment things got more complicated. I've lost at least two comments on this movie alone. I've seen that you have several replies on the flag, one of which seems to think there are more states than most us. I know we want you to see "Enemy at the Gate" "Band of Brothers" and "Hacksaw Ridge". I didn't think l would like "HR" but damnit I did! My dad was a navy corpsman in the Pacific Campaign and I know how screwed up it made him. I wouldn't let him see this movie because the seven different times he lived it. He never talked about it but I researched and found out what he did. I told you in one of my lost texts that I get teary when Ryan breaks down in the cemetery, when mama Ryan gets her telegrams, and when Ryan asks his wife if he's a good man. I also told you I was proud of you for getting you way through thus. You make this dedushka proud. Keep the faith baby.
