Glory stays entertaining, and accurately portrays events of the Civil War.

Rating: 10/10 (2 January 2017)

This was a very entertaining movie. While normally in my experience I am not enthralled by historical reenactments, Glory was enrapturing from start to finish. While not all of the movie was full on action, it often portrayed a different struggle; that of the African American soldiers, not against the confederates, but against their unfair treatment by the Union. From lower wages to not being allowed to fight, these struggles were more the focus of the movie than the actual violence. However, there was plenty of both, which kept the movie interesting. Unfortunately, half the characters one would be fond of are killed off in the end. However, sad as this may be, it is accurate to the civil war, and helps reinforce the tragic events of the time period.
