I recorded this and was 10 minutes in and wanting to stop and delete it, but I read a bunch of reviews on here and thought I would be patient. I watched thru the end. I must say, I just don't get how so many of you think this is a great movie. Making a musical out of this time period is so stupid and kind of condescending. It was painful to watch.
shareI guess all there is to say, is sorry you didn't like it. Tastes vary, as my grandmother always said, that is why they make both vanilla and chocolate.
shareIt's a movie. If you can let yourself go and enjoy the creativity, then you'll like it. If you want something a bit more true to presentation, then yeah, this probably isn't the movie for you.

Whether you liked it or not is completely up to you and no one can gainsay your opinion.
However, I fail to see how making a musical out of this time period is stupid or condescending. How, exactly, do you justify that position?
The trollers have a new technique. Instead of taking issues with others' posts, they take issue with the work using words meant to deliberately provoke controversy. Doesn't change what it is, or the glory of the work.
Besides just a story of founding of the nation, it's a story about death, loss, sacrifice, courage and what it means to have selflessness and determination, something that's often in short supply with our leadership these days, much as it was back in 1969.

I just saw it for the first time (in 4k) and I really, really loved it. Historical films can be boring but this was very entertaining.
