Immigrants who are patriotic for america are A-Okay in my book
I really don't like SPR
Good special effects and scenery
But on a moral level it's a complete joke, making it seem totally okay and even the right thing to do, to kill prisoners and enemy wounded
This exists.
Dab for freedom, kiddos.
I'm not particularly against Jews or anything, but Spielberg really shows his bias in that movie. If we are supposed to believe "not all Jews/blacks/etc" then why doesn't he believe "not all Germans"?
Spielberg is actually pretty unbias.
Remember Saving Private Ryan?
That movie is more biased than Schindler's List
Not really, no.
I remember "don't shoot; let em burn"
And?
And the prisoner they released ended up killing the officer
Waste of precious ammo
Absolutely inhumane
Germans aren't Muslims
Well they weren't back then
Inhumane
Raises odds of survival for your buddies
You just described most belligerents in conventional war
Actually, he showed war crimes begin committed by Americans as well.

The problem is that in the end, the message is "should have shot the guy"
Same thing happened in "Band of Brothers."
So, no, he was actually, at times, pretty impartial and non-bias in particular scenes.
I didn't know the onus was on war movies to convey morals
Personally
now, this is just me
I'd prefer to portray the things that happened
Band of Brothers was showing the reality that both sides did some horrible things. Not the same as portraying it as good or bad
Saving Private Ryan portrayed the Germans as evil?
It protrayed both sides as not being totally innocent.
Can confirm, Saw that element throughout the movie last night
p sure it portrayed people acting to preserve themselves
I actually like much of what Spielberg does.
Not exactly. It showed Americans as being morally right in allowing someone to suffer torture, to shoot an unarmed soldier who surrendered, and that the "better" solution to a prisoner dilemma is just to kill the prisoner
He also gave a ton of money for the D-Day War Memorial in Bedford, Virginia.
Oh I like a lot of his work, just not that particular movie
Everyone has their opinions I suppose
