Here is what people are saying about the Gettysburg (Widescreen Edition)
5 Star Rating  "One of the greatest movies ever"2009-09-27
- Reviewed By burmadom04
I don't often give movies a 5-star rating. Gettysburg is one of those rare exceptions. This is a movie about the Battle of Gettysburg, one of the most pivotal moments in U.S. history. The movie rises to the occasion. The acting is great, with Martin Sheen as General Robert E. Lee and Jeff Daniels as Colonel Chamberlain. The film has a beautiful cinematography and an incredible soundtrack by Randy Edelman. This is a masterpiece and will remain a classic for decades to come. I wish it had encouraged more historical fiction movies, but in the years since 1993 I haven't seen many movies of this caliber.
 
5 Star Rating  "one of the finest films of war"2009-09-27
- Reviewed By boberuski
balancing the experiences of 100,000 people over 72 hours isn't an easy accomplishment! yet, the makers of this film have done an outstanding job in assembling and producing a film destined to be the authoritative source for generations. this balances some of the common experiences of common soldiers with the pressures of mid-line leaders ordered to do the impossible to decision-making of the top brass, often without accurate information, worried for the safety of (lee's) cavalry, who have to make decisions quickly knowing that decisions in war always result in death. while of great educational value, this film is also tremendously entertaining. it's longer sometimes than i wish but then other times i could watch it for days. i found that, at times, it moved tremendously fast. i guess war does that. i highly recommend it and i give it an A+.
 
5 Star Rating  "Men of conviction"2009-09-13
- Reviewed By User: AH6761NR9TW9C
I have to admire this movie and "Gods and Generals" Gods and Generalsfor the even-handed approach to this most horrible event that has forever defined the American political and cultural landscape. Whether you call it the "Civil War" or "The War of Northern Aggression", the warriors of both sides are treated with great respect. It makes the caricatures of the South quite obvious and takes some of the polish off the North. The brave men of each side and their ideals are treated with great respect, and their failures are not overlooked.

If you want to understand our country, and our government, and why we are the way we are, and why the present North and South are still different, do yourself a favor and spend the seven hours these films take up. A mature person won't regret it. Ken Burns' treatment of the Civil War will do you well also. The Civil War - A Film by Ken Burns

Then, travel to Gettysburg and see the land yourself, see where thousands of brave men gave their lives and where President Lincoln gave his "Gettysburg Address". Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and the battle fought there -- it's not a movie, it's not a video game. It's real life. Watch the movie, visit the battlefield. It's like "Saving Private Ryan" Saving Private Ryan (Special Limited Edition) If you are an American and you're not moved and sobered, then check your pulse and check your soul.
 
5 Star Rating  "Best War Movie Ever"2009-07-06
- Reviewed By yukicat1
Gettysburg is, in my opinion, the best Civil War movie ever made, if not the best war movie ever made. It tells the story of the three-day long battle at Gettysburg, which, occurring at the same time as the surrender of Vicksburg, marked the turning point of the war. The movie accurately follows the historical novel "The Killer Angels". It is a very balanced movie, showing the battle from both sides, casting no stones and showing how heroic stubbornness on both sides both won and lost important phases of the battle. The theatrical version of the movie is over three hours long, but was so engrossing I didn't realize how much time had passed until the movie ended. Over 5,000 reenactors, with authentic reproductions of Civil War equipment and uniforms, gave realistic, crowded battlefield scenes, the line has rarely been seen before. Authentic tactics were used, also, and just like in the real battles, the black powder smoke made it difficult to see the battle field. A great story, well told, and with no obvious blunders (like using the wrong vintage of firearms) to mar the enjoyment. A must for all civil war buffs!
 
3 Star Rating  "Read the BOOK!!!!."2009-06-28
- Reviewed By User: A302GN21R4ELBU
After having seen the movie Gettysburg about 10 years ago, and after having researched it for a 7th grade project in the 1970's, I finally got around to reading "Killer Angels".

It may be a cliche, but as they say "the book is much better".
If you have NOT read the book, but have seen the movie, I urge you to consider the book.

While the movie gives you live actor battle scenes that you simply don't see anymore in today's CGI dominated movies, the book does a much better job of getting you inside the head of some of the main characters. It highlights how Buford's important role early on is almost forgotten in history, how incompetent most of the top brass was in the Union army, what a great if reluctant leader of men Chamberlain was, and how Longstreet struggled with the iconic Lee's tactics throughout the battle.

As for efficacy of the acting in the movie having the same emotional impact as the book, overall I think it is a mixed bag. Most of the actors in the movie are just OK, but Jeff Daniels as Chamberlain stands out. His speech to the 2nd Maine about what they are fighting for, and the bayonet charge still brings a lump to my throat. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I think Tom Berenger was TERRIBLE as Longstreet. His lines were deadpan and nowhere did I see his internal angst during the battle which was very well represented in the book. I also think that the book was as fair a depiction of the character of the men on both sides as possible, while the movie's depiction of the "Cavalier" gentlemen officers of the Confederate Army was a bit "over the top". Many of them seemed overly sentimental and "foppish", especially Pickett.

In any case, my verdict is good (but long movie), GREAT, GREAT book.
Read the book!

 
5 Star Rating  "Why do I praise this work"2009-06-24
- Reviewed By bracken422
Many years ago I entered my favorite Chicago bookstore, Abraham Lincoln Bookstore, shocked to find a large display of a new book The Killer Angels by Michael Shaara. My personal grudge against Mike Shaara goes back to 1964 when we were both at Florida State University. What is my reason for relating all this? If I can change my attitude toward the author, anyone can give him a second chance. It still hurts me to give five stars to this work. But the following reasons make it necessary:
1. The book is very well written. Mike had many choices how to work the story. I probably would have made it unreadable by including too many characters. Mead was barely mentioned. John Hood could have been played up more considering his importance later in the war, but it didn't belong in this work.
2. I disagree with not only Mike but many professional historians that the Battle of Gettysburg is overrated. Considering this I'm surprised at how well the author related this story. I have no problem with the historic content of this book or the later movie.
3. The characterization in the book and the movie is superb. This is fiction, but excellently done fiction. If I had not been curious about this work I probably would never have picked it up. I am glad I did read it and even glad I saw the movie.
