Austen H. Rotten Tomatoes automatic community guideline detector is malfunctioning, and seems to think that my positive review of this movie goes against their community guidelines. Reviewing all their guidelines multiple times, and finding that I didn’t break any of them, is making me regret making an account. However, this movie is fantastic. It meant a lot to me a a child, as this was one of the first “war movies,” and it continues to fascinate me to this day! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/20/25 Full Review Richard T Being that my Uncle was a Survivor of Rourkes Drift. And this is Sir Michael Cain First Film. This adaptation is Super close to what Actually Happened. From the Stories my Uncle told us when we were children. Mind you their is a Lot left out. And rightly So. If the movie was to be repaid today, And Mel Gibson was to produce it. You might get a true and accurate Account of what happened and who was there. The Records of the survivors is kept in Australia. And the complete record is in England which should have the number of boys missing from the Australian list. May they Who sacrifice so much for us Rest in peace. Amen Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/18/25 Full Review Brad S An absolutely terrible movie. Acting, special effects were laughable. Visually a stunning movie. How anyone gave this good reviews is beyond me. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/27/25 Full Review J B Big screen entertainment at its best with a great ensemble cast that somehow manages to highlight individuals amongst a wonderfully stirring story - a film that manages to reflect the bravery of both sides. I’d love to see this on the big screen … Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/29/25 Full Review Blobbo X Can't we all just get along? Apparently not, think Blobbo. Plus, is too effing long! (Sorry, Blobbo feeling cranky.) Never make through whole thing. Another reviewer post this comment~"Its failure to present any kind of historical context ill serves the indigenous African peoples whom Endfield presumes to honor." Sound about right. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/28/24 Full Review Mark B Gosh! Watch out for those spears, men! ZULU is a wonderful movie which fully captures the incredible, heroic deeds of a small garrison of fully paid-up and immensely brave members of the British Empire doing battle against what should have been impossible odds against 4000 Zulu warriors. But it's the British soldiers, resplendent to the last in their immaculate red tunics and white battle dress hats that are the REAL warriors here. Hopelessly outnumbered, the brilliant Michael Caine captivates throughout as the splendidly named Lt Gonville Bromherd, as he steers his tiny band of men to victory, despite the presence of missionary Jack Hawkins who does his best to try and scupper the whole thing by getting Caine's troops to surrender. Not a chance!! There are stellar performances from Stanley Baker, Nigel Green and James Booth. Luckily the irritating Ulla Jacobsen (Hawkins' missionary daughter) was carted off, along with Hawkins halfway through the film. For its age, ZULU still presses all the right buttons and makes this one of the greatest war movies of its time. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Read all reviews
