Remember the Alamo!

Rating: 9/10 (4 May 2004)

Remember the Alamo are the famous lines shouted by Sam Houston as he goes up against Santa Anna's army.
This movie was very good. The special effects are so real. You feel as if you were at the actual Alamo.
One thing in this movie stood out above anything else: Billy Bob Thorton. Billy Bob played an excellent Davey Crockett. I beleive that this performance will gain him an Academy Award nomination.
This is one of the best peformances that I have ever seen from Billy Bob.
With that being said the rest of the movie is simply average. The plot drags in places. Some of the characters were never fully developed and basically it required the watcher to do research before seeing this movie to trully understand it.
If you are not from Texas or if you are not familiar with the history of the Alamo then I suggest you look up some stuff before going.
I learned a lot from watching the movie and those guys were just DUMB. I don't know if I have this pride in my country.
