The Alamo

Rating: 10/10 (3 April 2006)

This is an excellent historical drama! I am a native Texan. I have seen many movies referring to the Alamo, and not many can compare to the feel of this one. The way it was done makes it feel as if WE were there, participating. I was grieving to see Crockett and the others slain, and I was cheering them on when Houston went after Santa Ana. My favorite part was when Davy Crockett played his fiddle to the music the Spanish army played when they wanted to fire canon at night. It was great! I don't particularly care what the critics say these days, as they are usually politically correct, but I was surprised when it bombed in the box office. Remember The Alamo! Cathy
