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
The vast majority were conscripts just fighting for their country, protecting their families
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
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
But I will agree that, opinions aside, the movie was well done
Except the film doesn't treat it as a "better" decision.
Well that's the feeling I got from it.
Some of the people try to justify the choice, but it is fundamentally morally ambiguous.
Just had my first encounter with a SJW

I have them all the time.
First time really? Tell us
