Everyone defaults to Spielberg when this comes up and I get it, the Omaha Beach sequence is insane. But "most realistic" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. The rest of the film is a fairly conventional Hollywood war story with a clean moral framework and a hero's journey.
Come and See, Das Boot, The Hurt Locker — any of these is a stronger argument. Hell, even Grave of the Fireflies captures the civilian reality of war better than SPR does.
So what actually deserves the title? I'll die on this hill.
