Alamo

Rating: 7/10 (6 April 2006)

Movie was entertaining in that I feel it attempted to portray the key figures exactly as they were are and not bigger than life individuals. Showing Travis's preoccupation with himself, Crockett's real character as opposed to the myth were refreshing. I felt that the lack of attention to history in sense that of Fannin's failure to supply troops and his own demise sort have rushed the last part of the money to its conclusion. Otherwise I found it an interesting story. This movie by far is more accurate in the events of the Alamo than the other films I have seen on the subject. I would suggest that people who enjoy American history take a look at this film.
