Saving Private Ryan was pretty good. Detail nuts like me would point out Korean War era back sights on the Garands, versus WW2 "Lock Bar" sights.
Another gaff which would have been easely fixed was the landing craft coming into the beach. Look at the vast horizon shown behind the landing craft as they churn toward Omaha. There is a vast horizon full of.....of....NOTHING!!!! Did these small landing come all the way from England on their own? How did they get there?
A vast armada of ships in the background is not shown until Captain Miller is up on the bluff getting the mission from Dale Die.
