Here it goes, were finally comparing the similarities and
differences of Saving Private Ryan, Stripes,
and 1941. To start off with, they all happen to war/military based films.
However 1941 is a full blown comedy
that is basically about the Japanese that wanted to attack Hollywood from
inside a submarine out in the Pacific Ocean whereas in Stripes, as it was also a comedy, seemed to have some more serious
parts in it and, in my opinion, was more interesting than 1941. Last, but definitely not least, we have Saving Private Ryan. Saving
Private Ryan is definitely not a comedy; in fact it is very dramatic as it
is intended to be. Saving Private Ryan
also happens to be very gory due to the fact that it is a war movie. So, from
what I remember seeing, these are the comparisons between these three movies.
Of
these three films, in my opinion, the more/most powerful one would definitely have
to be Saving Private Ryan. I say this
for many reasons and these reasons start with the fact that Saving Private Ryan is far more way realistic.
As for 1941, the intentions of the
characters in this film were very unrealistic. 1941 is unrealistic because of the whole idea of the Japanese’s
intentions of attacking Hollywood from inside a submarine that is out in the
Pacific Ocean. Once again, last but not least, we have Stripes a movie that was intended to be a comedy but had a few
forms of being realistic. These few forms of being realistic include the part
of the basic training. So overall, these are my ideas of these films and how I view
them.
