The Alamo Review (DVD)

This movie does run a bit long at 2 hours and 17 minutes. Overall the story is pretty good, but if you already know the history of the events its probably not too exciting. There some over the top hollywood moments, but overall it's not the worst movie I've seen, which is what you would expect considering it went through theaters without much notice. I thought it was a pretty good history lesson although I could have learned a lot more in less time from a textbook or online article. The Alamo probably isn't as bad as everyone thinks, but you're not missing anything if you don't see it.

The Alamo = Worth Seeing If You Really Like Movies or American History, Otherwise Skip It
