Good movie, historically inaccurate

Rating: 5/10 (28 November 2005)

This movie was put together phenomenally, but it was historically inaccurate. Not just a little, but a ton. If this movie were to be shown in a classroom, there are little accuracies to judge from. But on the other hand, on a personal level (the acting and in general just the idea of the movie) was fantastic. Matthew Broderick is a great actor, along with Morgan Freeman and Denzel Washington. I would recommend this movie for any war junky that just likes battles and the atmosphere of war, but if you are really anal about how movies are accurate, I would probably stay away from this one. All in all, this movie makes you feel as though you are actually there fighting with the men, and is a very intense movie. Greatly directed and greatly produced is what I have to say!
