Journal Post 2: Favorite Movie

     One of my favorite movies is Saving Private Ryan because it is one of the greatest war films ever made. It is rated online by some of the nation’s top movie critics as one of the best, if not the best, war films of all time. The plot is elaborate and intriguing, the acting is superb, and the action seems like it never stops. However, the reason why I like Saving Private Ryan the most is that it has meaning and significance beyond just WWII battles like other war films. It is about a group of soldiers trying to save Private Ryan because all of his brothers died in the war and the government sent out a group of soldiers on a humanitarian mission to recover him before he perished as well.
