Customer Reviews

Top of the list of military movies
This is one of the finest films I have seen centered on small Southern town prejudice and military procedure. The characters are all portrayed with some of the finest acting skills in the business. If I was disappointed in any way, it was with the knowledge that the story is fictional; everything about the film leads the viewer to believe that the incidence actually occurred. Nevertheless, fact or fiction, it is bound to move those who love movie drama as well as those who appreciate skillfull and accurate dramatization of military events. Five stars to the film itself, to the actors, writers, producers and music composers.

Great movie for my great collection
I've collected quite a few of Morgan Freeman's movies and this one was one of the best. Great doing business with Amazon.Com.

through anothers eyes
Wow, this was a great movie. although these kind of movies get us upset because of the injustices as well as the racism that existed and still does...how unfortunate that a human life means nothing because of the color of their skin....yet, he was good enough to fight for his country....we are however glad of the outcome of the movie, although it is kind of hard to say or accept that in real life(if those circumstances still were in place) that the outcome would be the same....Don't think so.....
