Dramatic and an Interesing Piece of History,

Rating: 8/10 (15 August 2014)

Glory is a great movie with a very well developed storyline and an outstanding cast.The movie is a very interesting and probably a very realistic look at how the US Civil War was fought.I didn't particularly enjoy Matthew Broderick as Robert Gould Shaw,he wasn't as bad as I thought he was going to be,but getting Ferris Bueller to be the main role of a serious war film was just a strange and risky casting decision,however,this movie was saved by two actors that were relatively unknown at the time but have gone on to become some of the biggest names in Hollywood,Denzel Washington and Morgan Freeman,I loved seeing these characters develop and watch their personalities change drastically over the course of the movie.Glory is as intense and it is dramatic,and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good history or war film.
An army officer must become the leader of a group of black soldiers during the civil war.
Best Performance: Denzel Washington Worst Performance: Cary Elwes
