Clunky Dialogue and Wrinkled Uniforms

Rating: 5/10 (8 November 2019)

I really was hoping for a rousing retelling of this important turning point of a battle. But I was highly distracted by the clunky dialogue, the slow manner in which the actors spoke their lines, the one-person-speaks-at-a-time approach and the crappy editing of the non action sequences. This is not the actors' fault but rather the director and the editor who are to blame. Who talks like that in real life? Some of the dialogue sequences were making me laugh because they were so cringe-worthy. This, for me, was the biggest reason for not rating this movie higher than a five. What kept me from rating it lower were the effects. Oh, one more thing; were irons and ironing boards not around during this time period? Not one character had a pressed uniform. I laughed as I typed that. Now that you know, however, try to keep a straight face when you see the American uniforms. You've been warned.
