Dude, your anxiety and sadness are completely appropriate. The most amazing thing about your reaction is near the end when your dogs sensed your unease and moved in close to comfort the "Alpha" of their pack. Overall, one of the best reactions I've ever seen. Freedom isn't free my brother. On this Memorial Day, lets remember to honor our fallen heroes by living lives worthy of their sacrifice. And dude, you just got another subscriber.

The part I really like is at 16:44 where he says: "I know y'all used to me laughing and joking but this ain't the one" ...Yes. This man gets it. Not every soldier signs up to be a badass - most of them just sign up to make a living for their families. They don't deserve to be disrespected with stupid over-the-top TikTok mannerisms and they're not political targets either. They're just regular guys like you and me who decided that they would pick up a gun to ensure the welfare of themselves and their families. You don't have to agree with the reasons that they're overseas fighting wars but you can still admire the courage that it must take to risk your life in order to further your career.

I'll add that one of the things that always stands out to me is when his wife looks at the cross curiously with "Captain John H Miller", obviously having never heard the name... 50+ years probably, and he obviously had never told her about it, his own wife - likely he carried that burden all those years in silence.

There’s just something about a man hugging his dog for some consolation and comfort. Dogs are always willing to give it. Dogs really are man’s best friend. No judgement, just love. Great reaction to a great movie. I know I’m not alone in saying I’d love to see your reaction to Band Of Brothers. It’s an HBO miniseries made a couple years after Saving Private Ryan also by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg. It’s similar to this story in tone, but much more personal in that it’s a real story about real WWII soldiers and you get to know each of them along the way. Band of Brothers changed my life and there is a small army of viewers on RU-vid that will follow anybody that posts their reactions. It’s a phenomenal heartwarming, gut wrenching, uplifting and memorable series. I hope you choose to watch it.

Same here.I saw this movie when it came out in 1998.I’ve since visited Omaha Beach,and how those American troops were able to take that beach,I will never know.The Germans had ALL the advantage.It’s a very haunting place,as is Pointe du Hoc,which the US army rangers took.It’s the realism of Saving Private Ryan that sets it apart from films such as The Longest Day.’WAR IS HELL’. That’s what a US army general said during the American Civil War.So you have to show everything,warts and all, for people to understand the tragedy of war and the loss of life that comes with it.Saving Private Ryan did just that.

@yankees29 9 месяцев назад

I saw it in the theater on a Sunday night. When we walked in there were a group of black girls in the back being noisy. By the time the first 15 minutes finished you could hear a pin drop. When the movie ended I looked back there as the lights came on. The girls were sitting there crying in stunned silence.

You mention how crazy it is for men this young to be doing this, and yeah, it's absolutely insane. My grandfather, who recently died, was a 23 year old sergeant of a mortar crew who fought in the Battle of the Bulge, EVERYONE in his squad was 18 or 19 and they all called him Professor because of his age. He lost a single man under his command, a Jewish kid who poked his head out and was tagged by a sniper. He died in my grandfather's arms. War is hell and it's a collective crime that the young have to fight the wars of the old.

During the Bulge he and his guys got really good at zeroing German half tracks. What a lot of people don't realize was that Germany was throwing EVERYTHING into that fight to break the lines, including the last of their armored units. He also helped liberated a small satellite camp, which he never, ever spoke of to anyone in the family.

@yankees29 9 месяцев назад

@@patrickwaldeck6681 my wife’s previous client was a 97 year old WW2 vet. I had the privilege of sitting down with him about a year before he passed. For 3 hours he told me stories about the war. He was in the Bulge. He was a mathematician that worked in an artillery unit. He would make adjustment calculations on the fly by hand. I asked him how close they could get a shell to a target. He said him and his boys could put one in someone’s back pocket if they wanted to. I was absolutely fascinated. So glad I took time to talk to him. These stories need to be passed on from generation to generation.

Real men aren’t ashamed of their tears. I choke up a little every time I even think of this movie and Band of Brothers. I dehydrate when I watch them. And those are just two stories among thousands of acts of courage, bravery and compassion during WWII. My grandfather was 101st airborne so it’s especially heart wrenching thinking about him going through all this, and he never talked about it with us and we never invaded his privacy. No one will ever know most of the stories of their assuredly commonplace sacrifices and hardships and fraternity among and between these men and women.

The first time I watched this movie I was with my friend who was a Vietnam veteran. He wanted someone to watch it with because he heard it was intense. While watching the movie I noticed my friend having an issue. the scenes were so realistic that he kept trying to adjust his helmet which was not actually there. We finished the movie by taking breaks. He was talking about his story while we were eating rations he took when he left Vietnam (the applesauce ate through the metal container so the only thing we could eat was the peanut butter and crackers). This was a point in time i will never forget. After the movie he said the most accurate thing in the movie was the sound effects and motion of the camera. I always want to thank everyone in the US military for there service past and present.

@gk5891 2 года назад

Many of the men who were on those beaches (and were at the premiere) had to leave the theatre. Steven Spielberg did this as a Memorial / Present (He was still alive) to his dad. He was uncertain how audiences would receive it. Many of the famous artists who did cameos in this film did so at a reduced rate as they believed in paying homage to those who had served (Few didn't have a family member who had).

@tacyak198 2 года назад

They were pouring sulfa powder on the medic when he was shot. It was the main drug used to fight infection before penicillin was invented. It was totally useless in that situation, dude was going to bleed out long before he had to worry about infection. It was meant to show how panicked everyone was that their medic was shot, and no one knew what to do. The fact that one would sprinkle sulfa and then another would pour water and wash it away, then another would pour sulfa, then more water, also showed the panic and the fact that no one knew what to do. That and the morphine was all anyone knew to do. When he asked for more morphine, it wasn't to ease the pain, it was to end it all with an overdose. That's why everyone gave the looks they did when he asked. The saying back was something along the lines of "One shot will make you see stars, two shots will make you see God."

My friend was Homeland Security attached to the Army outta the 101st a few years ago. Now lemme tell you something and also the people here that I think they might not know about your father and others like him when it comes to THEIR experiences as a soldier.

But since your Dad is African American he was still in a society that he had to sit at the BACK of the damn bus AFTER serving this country!

If you like this movie, might I suggest The Fighting Sullivans (1944) as well. You should react to "Sullivan" by Caroline's Spine in the same video, after the movie (the song will have more meaning after the movie). This is, of course, just a recommendation. Fun Fact: Steven Spielberg cast Matt Damon as Private Ryan because he wanted an unknown actor with an All-American look. He did not know Damon would win an Oscar for Good Will Hunting (1997) and become an overnight star before the film was released. Bonus Fact: Cinemas were instructed to up the volume when they showed the film, as the sound effects play such a crucial part in its overall effect. I remember this, because the theatre I was had surround sound and that tank approaching came from EVERY speaker. I was having a small panic attack (I was 17 at the time and I just signed up to join the US Army, so cut me a little slack) leading to the final battle. Bonus Fact: The Omaha Beach scene cost $11 million to shoot, and involved up to 1,000 extras, some of whom were members of the Irish Army Reserve. Of those extras, 20-30 of them were amputees, issued with prosthetic limbs, to play soldiers who had their limbs blown off.

MIller, NO way am I allowing Ryan to stay with his unit...He had authority to order him back (under arrest if necessary)because his mission came from the top, which superseeds thier order to hold that bridge...Even with another 10 guys, no way could've they held it--His men deserved to go home, not sacrifice themselves for an impossible task. And yes, this flim should've won the Oscar hands down.

@stanmann356 2 года назад

I agree with most of what you said, but the fact is that with the extra 8 men they DID hold the bridge. It's doubtful they would have with out the extra men, especially with the sniper in the tower, and most importantly Miller's tactical planning skills. Remember they didn't even have an officer left. What I disagree with was the whole sending out a squad to look for him. The most logical thing to do would have been to put the word out to all commanders in the area that whenever Ryan checked in at a rally point to have him sit tight and transport him back to the beach. Edit: Six extra men, I forgot they lost two

I watched this and Schindler's List in an actual movie theater when they came out. Some older people in the audience were opening sobbing. Those two movies hit them hard. Now almost all of our WW2 veterans are gone. If you are fortunate enough to be able to listen to their story in person, cherish it.

I've watched this film at least 30 times and shed tears every single time. Anyone that doesn't tear up at that final cemetery scene is dead inside. Great reaction. You got some good puppies there looking out for you. The only other films that hit me like this are "The Green Mile," (Tom Hanks, Michael Clarke Duncan), and "Good Will Hunting" (Matt Damon and Robin Williams among others).

Amen, man. I have to say I will watch this with you for sure. This movie gets reacted to a lot (understandably so), but when that happens I pick and choose my reactors carefully, I don't want to over do it with Alien, Thing and Jaws reactions, you know what I mean? So I hardly ever watch reactions for this one....but DEFINITELY with you, I'm going to watch this one, in honor of Memorial Day, but also just because you're a good reactor!

@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 2 года назад

I’m the same way. For this movie I choose reactors that have shown themselves to be thoughtful, empathetic & don’t make a lot of a snap decisions. A lot of reactors seem to misunderstand why Spielberg put Upham’s character in the position he did & I find it frustrating when a reactor misses the point & starts talking about what ‘they would’ve done..’

Your honest reaction to the story and the horrors of war was refreshing, especially compared to many "reactors" out there who are just trying to be armchair film critics. I'm glad you had your co-pilots there to help you get through this movie; it's a tough one to endure, especially watching it alone. Thanks you for your kind words to those who have and are still serving. I'm a veteran myself, and it's nice to be appreciated. Hope you had some great ice cream and are feeling better. Now, through a comedy into the player and enjoy yourself! P.S. it's a great Spielberg movie as well, but I'd avoid Schindler's List for awhile - it's just as, if not more, traumatizing than Saving Private Ryan.

@rbrtck 2 года назад

Ryan didn't want to go home because he'd rather fight beside the only brothers he had left. While I understand his feelings, I think that in his place I'd want to go home more, because my parents just lost three of their sons, and I'm the only one they have now. Maybe I'm full of it and have no idea because I've never been in that situation, but for what it's worth, I *think* that I would go home--perhaps somewhat reluctantly and/or guiltily, but I would. The generals who gave the order and that captain played by Ted Danson would agree. I would not deprive my parents of their last son (or child, if they had no daughters).

The scenes where they call for their mama - and in the D-day scene where they show the one cowering - gets me every time…. Many of them were SO young! 🥺 A few weeks ago I watching a documentary about the USS Indianapolis (and if you’re not familiar with THAT story… it is the absolute stuff of nightmares.). Anyway it was mostly interviews with survivors, and one after another “I was 18…17…18….20…19…18” And of course that isn’t even out of the ordinary, my dad is a Vietnam vet and 19 or 20 at the time…. many young people join the military just out of high school… But as a mama is hits so hard. My oldest son is 17, and I’m tearing up just thinking of him being mortally wounded on another continent…. heck my oldest daughter is tough as nails and as a teenager when she would get really sick she’d cry and want me right with her. Yeah… those “Mama!!” cries are devastating

This movie changed the way war movies were made. Prior to this the level of realism and brutality just weren't there in movies. Nothing before it compares and really since this one came out very few do. There are only maybe three or four that I would recommend checking out that can match this as both a very good movie and a realistic/intense one: Black Hawk Down (2001), We Were Soldiers (2002), Lone Survivor (2013) and then maybe Hacksaw Ridge (2016)
