The battle for the title of "Greatest World War II movie of all time" is almost as fiercely fought as the war itself. "Dambusters" has got to be in the conversation, as has "Schindler's List". The more recent "Dunkirk" has made its way into the argument now too, but a lot of people will point to "Saving Private Ryan" and say it's never been topped.
They may have a point, but that doesn't mean it gets a free pass in terms of historical accuracy. Remember when Captain Miller gets heroically wounded in battle, and needs a little chill out time? He takes a pause to rest up against a motorcycle. The problem is that the bike is a Ural M-63, a model that wasn't invented until almost 20 years after the war ended. We're happy to give producers a little leeway, but that's not even close!
