“D-Day: Capt John Miller (Hanks), a decent school teacher in another life, is among the unfortunates storming Omaha Beach. Miller and his platoon are assigned to find and bring back Private Ryan, the brother of three soldiers killed in the same week, who's missing behind enemy lines.” – Time Out

Reviews

“An old-fashioned war picture to rule them all — gripping, utterly uncynical, with viscerally convincing and audacious battle sequences.”
– Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

“A soberly magnificent new war film.”
– Janet Maslin, The New York Times
