WW2 Waffen SS German reviews Private Ryan

[Gila]

In one point of the film that was made up with no basis of proof or fact (hollywood style),was when a sniper was shot in the eye through his own scope when the sun glinted on it giving a marksman a target.

It was proven not possible on the Mythbusters program useing period scopes and late versions the bullet just splinters and never goes all the way through so the worst would be a black eye.

I still like the movie though,Thin red line is exellent also,but "The longest day" was also great movie IMO.
