Michael Ordoña Los Angeles Times The film is passionately made, but its unapologetically romantic views of war and the Old South leave a bitter aftertaste. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 8, 2007 Full Review Paul Malcolm L.A. Weekly It's easy to keep blaming Ken Burns for this kind of softcore Civil War porn, but enough is enough: This is a vanity project of the most indulgent order.

Bobby Z Excellent soundtrack! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/24/24 Full Review Audience Member This depiction of life during Civil War was lacking authenticity, particularly with the main female character Evelyn. Her hair was nothing like women wore their in that era. Her dresses were all low cut during the day. Women did not show the bosoms until after 5:00pm. The materials and dress designs were totally wrong. The combination of all 4 observations ruined the entire movie. Very disappointing. The evil Union solider's hair was ridiculous. Costume design and hair styles were just too ridiculous to believe or rate genuinely. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the worst movies I have ever seen. I watched the whole thing for the same reason people slow down past car accidents, plus I am in awe of Micky Rooney. I am glad he as appeared in movies after this so this wont be remembered as his last Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I did not get into the film. I am not really into love films. I did not find the acting believable. It did not help that the actors did not speak in accents. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Decent! Good, solid, certainly a bit Hallmark-y, but ultimately satisfying. The ending in particular was quite well done. And really, when's the last time you saw a Civil War film that actually portrayed Southerners as something other than brutish troglodytes, and Northerners with complex loyalties? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm not sure what they were trying to do, aside from seemingly make a lot of "Old South" wankery. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
