What a load of Propaganda

Rating: Null/10 (30 October 2000)

I have never seen such a load of cr*p in my life, It was unbelievable, absurd and totally one sided. No American studio would make a movie that portrayed U.S. soldiers doing the kinds of things that this movie shows the British soldiers doing. So why do they think that what they are doing here is acceptable.
Between the sneering Officers and bumbling soldiers it amazes me the the British were able to build an empire at all. I mean Mel and 2 small boys killing 20 soldiers who just stood around waiting to get shot, give me a break.
The Brits and even the French and First Nations are portrayed as brutal and savage but the Americans are thoughtful, gentle and guided by god. This is bull. There was a good reason that the First Nations fought on the side of the British, the Americans were just as brutal as any other, especially towards First Nations peoples.
Is the American psyche so fragile that they must serve up this pseudo historical fiction. Worst of all though is the fact that this movie wasted more than 3 hours of my life.
