Movie Review

Grade: C+ Before I saw this movie, I had heard some complaints about the historical accuracies of the film. To those I was going to say in this review, "Who cares?" However, after watching The Patriot, I have realized that some historical accuracy may actually have helped the movie in the entertainment department. Read the full movie review

Gods and Generals, by Bob Fields

August 30, 2003

This movie was good for those who could understand it and take it seriously. The movie had some battle scenes repeated and the fighting parts were not that long. There was lots of religious parts that made the move a little dull. Even with those negative points,it was still a interesting show. The movie in general was not so much about fighting but about the civil war.
