Now here's a variation, these two movies are both great IMHO but which one was more your style.

Both very realistic, both about the second world war, but both from VERY different perspectives.

My personal choice, and it was hard deciding this BTW as I loved both movies, was to go with The Thin Red Line as it was taken from a very personal and introspective view of the soldiers experience, extremely deep in parts but I almost felt that I understood (allbeit on a very shallow level) the fear, sadness and mixed emotion of the soldiers.

WHICH ONE DID YOU LIKE BEST AND WHY ?

SPR is a very graphical realistic and really gives a great insight into the horrors of war

Having not seen the TRL, SPR was a great movie. I agree with Uranus a very graphic representation of what War maybe like.

I reckon I will go the Thin Red Line on this one, I liked the insight into all the crazy that goes on in their heads. But yeah I agree with Soloman if it was up to TV too I would have gone Band of Bro's :)

Saving Private Ryan for me. TRL was too deep, it freaked me a little I think hehe
