8/10
Rousing movie
5 June 2002
Warning: Spoilers
**Spoiler alert** Okay, so this movie isn't realistic (why should it be?) and it's predictable (so what?), but it sure was fun to watch. We sat on the edges of our seats watching the DVD, and nobody wanted to pause it long enough to get refreshments or use the bathroom, because we were all caught up in the action. It was a game of war strategy and a game of chess strategy. Redford was thoroughly enjoyable. Toward the end of the movie we were all yelling and cheering, as well as being sad at the demise of the general, though the ending was fitting, under the circumstances. THAT is what makes a movie worth watching. It aroused many good feelings, satisfied needs (to see the bad guy punished), and made us all glue ourselves to the screen and cheer. Definitely worth seeing.
