I've heard of "War" isn't it a mid eighties Russian film? Who directed it? I'd like to see it. I like Andrei Tarkovsky (Stanislaw Lem) Solaris. Still haven't seen the new version, though I doubt it will be as good. One of his other films that I love is "Stalker".
The only gripe I have with Saving Private Ryan is that there are absolutely no Free French, British, Canadian etc.. troops anywere in that film. That's typical Hollywood distorting the truth, I think it shows great disrespect. Apart from that it is good film though.

Well, I haven't seen the new version either. Btw there is another movie called "War", but it's about Chechnya war (sorry, but i can't call it an anti-terror operation) (a good action movie, though, and it shows some real aspects of life in Russia). Oh, that made me remember another Chechnya war -based movie - "Purgatory". It did impress me.
And about Saving Private Ryan showing disrespect - I agree with you. I've been to the US - most of 'em think that US won the Second World War (no offence. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's what I encountered).
