all right, but full of negatives

Rating: Null/10 (8 June 2002)

gettysburg is an all right movie i suppose
its length annoys me to no end
the battle scenes aren't bad when it comes to showing the battles of the time
however, this movie is like so many others
why is it that southerners are portrayed so badly in all movies?
in every civil war movie, the southerners are always portrayed as horrible people who are unsophisticated and stupid this is totally untrue at that time or the current time like most southerners, i am terribly offended by it and another martin sheen is absolutely horrible as robert e. lee sheen is a very talented actor, but where did he get that cheesy accent?
i am from virginia and no one in any part of our state talks that way
another, the way lee is portrayed is offensive
anyone who has ever visited our state knows that lee is our state's greatest hero
he was a brilliant, wise, and teriffic general who was a very sensitive and caring man, not some bumbling fool like they try to make him in this movie
he was a true honorable southern man who genuinely cared about his troops and his people
this movie is horrible by no means, but like so many others is full of inaccuracies
