Mistakes
At the start of the film in the telegraph scene, a Captain goes into the Colonel's office to tell him about the Ryan brothers. He is holding a folder which he puts on the Colonel's desk, but we don't see him pick it back up in all the following shots, yet it suddenly appears back in his hands. See more...
Trivia
The scene where Private Jackson shoots through the German sniper's scope, killing him is based on Carlos Hathcock's 2 mile sniper shot through a Viet Cong's sniper scope with a scoped Browning M2. Carlos Hathcook was very famous for killing a General and later commanded a platoon of snipers. See more...
