BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

benfthomas The battle scenes are very captivating and always kept me on the edge of my seat. The underscoring music throughout the movie was very moving and each piece that proceeded the next fit the timing in which it was placed in the movie. After watching this movie you will feel and become more informed on the behind the scenes of fighting during the civil war, especially for an all black regiment, which was an unprecedented breakthrough for the time period. Overall an interesting and mesmerizing movie to watch, you will have a hard time taking your eyes off of it.

rileymcilmoylcc This movie is one of my favorite war movies, I really loved how it was focused around a battalion that had freed slaves in it. Because most movies about the civil war don't ever really talk about the fact that slaves did go and join the union after the emancipation act. And even some of the discrimination the soldiers faced in the battalion. Also the characters are all very dynamic and have a nice character arch. I would recommend this movie to anyone who is a matthew broderick fan or someone who is a fan of war movies.

johnbills-49107 The movie Glory which was directed by Edward Zwick was a very bloody movie that told of the first all African American regiment. At first they believed they would get a lot of fighting in the war but come to the realization that they are going to have to earn the fight and to earn getting placed in battle. They fight for the Union. The regiment is led by Robert Shaw and it is a very tricky task for him as he believes in the men but there is the theme of prejudice in the mix. The men finally are given the task of leading a bloody attack on Fort Wagner for the final fight of the movie the assault failed and Shaw was killed. The movie painted a very good picture of what actually happened on the attack of Fort Wagner and the 54th regiment. It was very gruesome but also very historical.

vanessadawley The portrayal of the civil war soldiers in this movie was emotionally moving. The actors were very good. It seems obvious why this movie and its actors received so many awards. The action scenes were realistic and accurately helps capture the bloody nature of war. The internal turmoil of the characters makes it easy to connect with them.
