* GenreTurningPoint: It’s easy to forget now, but ''Saving Private Ryan'' changed war movies in general as well as depictions of the Second World War. Previous WWII films tended to take a more romantic, heroic tone especially when portraying soldiers’ lives and battle scenes. ''Ryan'', while it does honor the actions of the soldiers, put much more emphasis on the loss of life, the danger the soldiers are in along with their suffering, and their personal aspects. And that’s without mentioning the hyper-realistic violence & gore in the film’s battle sequences that had never been depicted so accurately prior. Nowadays, War Films, especially WWII Films, take the “WarIsHell” approach that Spielberg’s film pioneered & perfected.
