Give Me a Break

Rating: Null/10 (18 July 2002)

At the risk of sounding like a racist...the movie was ok if you like fiction. Unfortunately in the political correct society we live in the "truth" must take a back seat so that Hollywood may a portray a complete bastardization of American History. # 1 THE CIVIL WAR WAS NOT FOUGHT OVER SLAVERY....PLEASE READ YOUR HISTORY #2 The African American involvemnet in the Civil War was relegated to prison camp and supply line guard duty only and in that they suffered severe routs aka Fort Pillow and Fort Ryan incidents. #3 Matthew Broderick was completely wrong for his role in this movie....I kept waiting for Ferris Bueller to morph. One wonders if mainstream America cares about historical fact. I thought the movie was incredible predictable and boring
