Remains one of the most gripping, intense sequences in any movie I've seen.
And actually the video game incarnation in Medal of Honor: Allied Assault (which is basically a playable frame for frame reproduction of the movie) remains one of the sweatiest, most intense video game sequences I've ever played.
Truly harrowing to both watch and play, this scene is really one of the true greats.
MoH: AA is one of the best games I've played, and was visually far better than Battlefield at that time.
I think it gets forgotten a bit which is sad because it was actually a really revolutionary game. Call of Duty is the big name now, but in my opinion Call of Duty never gets as big as it is today without the groundwork laid by MoH.
I remember trying to storm the beach and getting cut down every time. You have to watch for a particular kind of gun fire strafing across the sand.
