Excellent Film

Rating: Null/10 (21 June 2006)

Excellent Film,
I can't imagine a film like this getting poor reviews  I guess the craft and its significance is a bit beyond the understanding of the current generation and those who are into movies featuring morons like Paris Hilton or Snoop Doggie Dogg. But this is an important film that has been very well done. I've watched it three of four times - once with the historical commentary. Each time I'm impressed with not only the effort it took to make such a film but the historical significance of the story it tells. The film is superbly directed, acted, filmed, and is the closest historically we're bound to see. Billy Bob Thornton's performance is beyond great as are the other main characters. In fact, I can't think of any actor that did do an outstanding job including the little boy who witnessed Crockett's final moments. It is one of the few films I couldn't wait to own on DVD. I easily give this film an A+ .
