In the last great invasion in the last great war, the greatest challenge for eight men was saving... one.


Director Stephen Spielberg has made several extraordinary movies over the years. Just like Schinlderīs List this one is about the second world war. The movie begins with D-day when American troups set foot in Normandy. You really get a feeling of the terror that met them and most of them didnīt survive.
This war saga has really touched me and I cried a lot when I saw it. I still do... This movie is filled with great actors and Spielberg really brings out their talents.
