If it weren't for the very end...

Rating: Null/10 (17 March 1999)

Wow, Like everyone says, the first twenty minutes are amazing. The characters, the story, the script, all very good. But, however, the ending with the old man saying, "Tell me I'm a good man," seems forced and unnecessary. It is weak, and contrasts the mood of the whole movie. It is just so fake, I wonder why Spielberg threw it in. If you have the scene with the old man at the beginning, you can get it, and you DON'T need the end. Otherwise, yes, it is an excellent movie. All in all, though, "Glory" is the best war movie.
