More American Revisionist History

Rating: Null/10 (27 June 2000)

Hurray, more American revisionist history. Having felt that robbing the brave ordeals of a submarine crew and imprisoned commando team wasn't enough; Roland Emmerich (emphasis on the ICK) has decided to butcher the War of Ignonimy (Oops, thats independance, I forgot who wrote your history books).
While the filming certainly has charming aspects, especially considering the tripe that Emmerich has been responsible for in the past, it does not change the fact that it misrepresents historical fact for the purpose of entertaining a group of naive Americans who are blinded by pretty shiny things and loud noises.
Do I sound a bit bitter? It is not intended; I just recommend you get the whole story before you make assertions like "It accurately portrays..." based on no actually scholary education. Some of things that I could tell you about George Washington would turn your stomach.
