Alamo, true history

Rating: Null/10 (12 April 2004)

I'm not a history buff, but I went to see this movie because my husband is. He said this movie was OK. I thought it was a great movie. Other reviews said it could not compare to the old John Wayne movie, but I just saw that 3 1/2 hour movie and there is no comparison. This movie gives you the facts right up front without all the individual personal facts of each character.

I was most impressed with Billy Bob's performance as David Crockett (as he stated he would prefer to be called). The other actors were also great in their roles.
The movie is The Alamo and that is what you get. It's as much of the facts as you can get in a two hour movie.
