Memphis Belle-
I had watched this movie having small bias against world war two films. The only film I truly enjoy about the world war era is Saving Private Ryan, but I admit that I did think this film was better than previous films I had watched about 20th century warfare. I consider Memphis Belle only a satisfactory film, but there were some great aspects of the film including the story that the movie portrays. I thought the actual plot and characters were well done and I have great respect for the men who defended the United States during World War II and all wars. It is fascinating to watch a film about a group of young men preservering through challenges I will never experience. I also like the subtle humor that is included in the film. The film failed to stimulate my "woah" or "wow" senses, but battles were still interesting enough to keep my full attention. Maybe the bias I came with to watch the film is the reason I did not think this movie was spectacular, but regardless of my bias against world war II films, I would still recommend this film to future students because of the interesting historical story told about a brave group of soldiers.

Well said Kyle and I'm glad you ended up liking it. I, too, really like Saving Private Ryan.
