What an interminable bore. I haven't seen Gettysburg (and have no desire to after seeing this), but I recall it's reviews being better.
I thought the acting was bad and the dialogue worse. Obviously there's been a lot of attention to detail, but there's not a single compelling moment in the film. (I take that back. The opening credit sequence was nice.) If I didn't have to review the film, I think I would have checked out of this one well short of its end.
There are also some things I found eyebrow-raising, but that stuff isn't up for discussion here.
Simply dreadful.
