Saving Private Ryan is, without a doubt, my favorite
movie of all times. There is absolutely no other
movie in the world which has so accurate a
storyline, and dedication to it. Not to mention the
overwhelming visual effects, and the great acting
overall. All of it is just amazing.

I don't really have a top 5, but I have seen a few
movies which concern the WWII era, as well as
others. Here are a few examples :

1) Enemy at the Gates (Stalingrad). This movie
wasn't much of a blast, mainly because it does not
really tell us alot about what happened at
Stalingrad (to my recollection, one of the bloodiest
battles ever).

2) Braveheart. To be honest, this movie comes to
earn its second place in my top 5. Great acting,
beautiful landscapes, and breathtaking battles.

And finally :

3) The Patriot. Also a superb movie, with a great
storyline, tremendous battles... nothing more to
say.

Thanks for hearing me out,
-Tom.
