All-American hero John Wayne takes a crew of construction workers and turns them into one of WWII's toughest fighting forces in this action-packed war classic. After having convinced the Army brass to let his civilians bear arms, Wedge Donovan ( Wayne) whips his new troops into combat shape. But when he leads his unit in an all-out assault against the Japanese, Donovan is brought up on court-martial charges and must fight for his life on a new battlefield. (official distributor synopsis)

When I first saw Saving Private Ryan, I was absolutely blown away by the way the battle scenes looked in the film. Very powerful and realistic. The Fighting Seabees doesn't have such realistic scenes, but Americans simply knew how to make a good war film with great action scenes. This is definitely what I liked most about the film.
