Still the best

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2000)

I am a big movie fan, and I still enjoy this movie above all else. Partly because I have an interest in the American Civil War.
The acting is great all around, and for those that say Matthew Broderick seems too young, keep in mind the Col. Shaw was also very young in real life. This was a war fought by men, but near the middle and end of it, when they finally allowed black soldiers to serve, boys were fighting as well.
The final battle scene with Horner's music overlaying the action still gives me chills. As historically accurate as Hollywood is willing to get. And graphic, 10 years before Private Ryan.
I recommend this movie to all.
