One of the best films i have seen

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Freeman
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Darin
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

I love Civil War movies, and bought this Blood and Honor on a DVD with four movies on it. That should have been a tip-off that it was a cheaply made, non-seller movie. It is a long way from a good movie. I don't like to bash a movie so let me just say I would not watch it again. There was some passable acting in it, and I'm not saying they were horrible, but most of the time it was obvious that they were acting, as in a lower level play. The script was not very good either. I found very little believable and the Yankee uniforms pitiful. Miles O'Keeffe was not up to par in this. Maria Ortiz did a fine job and was believable. There isn't much more that can be said. Gone With the Wind it isn't.

This semi-professional Civil War soap opera is watchable, but mundane. There are some extremely distracting technical blunders, like camera sounds audible from certain positions, and the battle scenes are yawners. The script serves up many of the stock characters and situations from what must have been a Civil War enthusiast's tedious vanity press novel, in often disjointed fashion. The photogenic Maria Ortiz has the spiciest role as the conniving Cajun maid, and reveals promising acting potential. She barely outshines the actress playing Miles "Tarzan" O'Keefe's fleeting romantic interest; these two women display more professional-quality skills than the more widely-credited O'Keefe and one-time B-queen Michelle Bauer (as an old maid sister). The DVD is unfortunately saddled with a trailer for something called "Massacre," which is worth seeing once merely for its astounding badness. Unfortunately, the 10 minute+ preview cannot be bypassed...
