I find that violent scenes in movies don't really get to me unless the violence is portrayed in a very realistic fashion, with no sanitization. Most so-called violent scenes and movies have cartoonish, sanitized violence so it fails to get any reaction from me.

Thus, that's why I said the scene in Saving Private Ryan was the most violent. The death scene is not sanitized, and the horrific reality is right in your face; the Nazi soldier is taking great, personal pleasure in slowly inserting the knife into his heart, and you see the blood, you see the horrified desperate look on his face as the knife goes in. And you can almost feel the knife go in; you can perceive the essence of a dying man, and the hatred and glee that the Nazi feels as he snuffs out his life.

To me, that is more horrifying and violent than all the car chases, explosions, and Hollywoodish machine-gunning of foes tthat I have ever seen.
