This movie kicks butt!

Rating: Null/10 (11 April 2004)

After seeing this film, I was just...well....stunned. This movie has "Oscar" written all over it. The battle scenes were awesome (not exactly "Lord of the Rings" material, but still awesome). There was little sex or nudity and the vulgarity was few and far between. This is a great film about an important but overlooked era in American history. This film has made me anxious to go out and rent the John Wayne version made in 1960...and I will, too. Billy Bob Thorton was excellent as Davy Crockett and Dennis Quaid was just as good as Sam Houston. Jason Patric is fabulous as the knife-wielding Jim Bowie. Do not miss this film, it's worth the $7 to see it. Take my advice and GO SEE THIS FILM!
