I'm sure this would be a great historical story if told properly but this movie is just terrible. The acting, script, and most especially the editing (oh the terrible, terrible editing) really tank this movie.
Oh I'm forgetting the musical score, sound tracking, cinematography, direction, and production. Did I mention how terrible the editing is? It's terrible.
Also everyone looks like they've just had an hour long hot shower and put on clothes straight from the dry cleaners all the time.
