"Glory"

Rating: 8/10 (4 January 2006)

Personally I thought "Glory" was a great movie. It showed perfectly how Shaw brought his men under his command, and earned their trust. I think "Glory" is a very moving movie, and it vies with Gettysburg for my favorite Civil war movie. I would recommend this "Glory" to those who like war movies, as I think it is one of the best for its time period.
After seeing a movie like this one, you cant just go back to every day things. It forces you to think about what all those men did out there. It made me think of them more as people who lived and died for a cause they believed in, and not just some random guys who fought a battle a while ago. Abraham Lincoln was so right when he wrote "the world will little note, nor long remember what we say or do here" but really we shouldn't forget what those brave men did, and this movie brings it all to live in a very powerful and, like I said, moving way.
