One word - brilliant...

Rating: Null/10 (15 April 2000)

This was an "unknown" film to me until I picked it up from a video store a few years ago - and boy was i impressed with it. A superb cast, and excellent acting. The only fault is that it sometimes delves into sentimentality sometimes, but the battle sequences really make up for that - extremely realistic. Think of it as a "Saving private ryan" set in the civil war. A great film - and one, might i add, that i've watched around 5 or 6 times now.
