Saving Private Ryan

I have always liked learning about war. I think that it is a very interesting topic. There sis a lot to learn about the world we live in and the way people interact. I thought that the opening scene was one of the most powerful scenes in film that I have ever watched. The different angles of shots that htey use allows for the viewer to see the action from many perspectives, but the two main perspectives are from the soldiers going onto the beach and then the soldiers that are defending the beach. The special effects and make-up are a hude part of this scene. You get to see death first handed and watch people get injured. This is all because they planned out the scene and used fake bomb, guns, ships, and make-up to help. This scene leaves you with a feeling of confusing, emptiness and not knowing. But in part that is what war is.
