- I would more call that the theme, but it's certainly accurate. -- nm - Reagen Jul 18, 18:37 1

describe the plot of Saving Private Ryan. -- nm - Reagen Jul 18, 18:16 5
- The plot of that movie is so simple and easy to understand it's essentially summarized in the title so I don't get your point. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jul 18, 18:29 3

    - No, I didn't make that point anywhere. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jul 18, 19:01
    - Not complicated, but it is a bit more complex than your standard blockbuster. - TWuG Jul 18, 18:39
