I dont think Ive seen tora tora might have when I was a kid. Might give it a look one day sounds good.

There's something about Saving Private Ryan for me, we all have our personal best war movie, when I first watched this movie back in 99, I was glued to the screen from start to end and I still get goosebumps every time I watch it especially in the start when they are traveling to the beach then get on land and trying to make their way to cover I never tire of that part.

I read a news item not long after the movie came out where of one US vet who watch the movie and during half time he went to the cinema toilets not to relieve himself but to have a good cry. He was there on the beach that day and he says Steven Spielberg got it right on the mark with the beach act, he felt like he was there again and brought back a lot of memories.
