Wild for N @RT42520137 Nov 2, 2025 It's entertaining, romantic and funny. Cheeky parts that made me giggle lol. It's a great movie. See more Carole S @Carole140 Jul 19, 2025 I thought it was really nice to see the Civil War from another perspective. We always get the narrative from the Union side. The Union won and since many people still think that the war was about slavery instead of it really being about the southern states following the constitution and seceding as prescribed in that document, over economic reasons. The winner always gets to write history, so Lincoln's abrogating the constitution, disbanding the Supreme Court, and other unconstitutional things are never mentioned. I don't have a dog in this hunt, but I can see things from both sides, and it was good to have another side presented. Additionally, it was a really well written, well acted in an ensemble style, well produced, great production values and great depiction of the era.

No white person in the script seems to actually like slavery. The slaves themselves were sad about the whole thing, but understanding. Kind of surprising. It comes down to a weird apologia to the VMI for being traitors to this nation for a not very good reason.

Superb acting and a great retelling of boys who became men during the midst of The American Civil War.

The fact that it takes over an hour before at least the action starts doesn't make it any better. All in all, a rather below-average account of the American Civil War. See more Read all reviews
