Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Judy StoneGlory is, without question, one of the best movies ever made about the American Civil War.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kevin ThomasAn eloquent, heart-tugging Civil War epic about the first black infantry regiment to march off to battle for the Union. And epic is the word. Not since John Ford has a film maker created such dramatic large-scale Civil War battle scenes in a major theatrical film.
Boston Globe - 9/10 by Jay CarrRichly plotted, alternately inspiring and horrifying, Glory is an enlightening and entertaining tribute to heroes too long forgotten.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertGlory is a strong and valuable film no matter whose eyes it is seen through.
Washington Post - 9/10 by Rita KempleyThis stirring historical re-creation depicts the experiences of America's first unit of black soldiers in the Civil War and the young Northerner who leads them.
The New York Times - 8/10 by Vincent CanbyGlory is celebratory, but it celebrates in a manner that insists on acknowledging the sorrow. This is a good, moving, complicated film.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Dave KehrThough the film has an evocative look reminiscent of Matthew Brady’s period photographs, Zwick has stuffed the actors’ mouths with numbing bombast. Glory is a shame.
The New Yorker - 8/10 by Pauline KaelA pretty watchable and always interesting period film, well photographed by English cinematographer Freddie Francis.
Time - 8/10 by Richard SchickelIt is the movie's often awesome imagery and a bravely soaring choral score by James Horner that transfigure the reality, granting it the status of necessary myth.
User Review - 10/10 by RatedRexThe Best Civil War movie of all time. And one of the top 5 war movies of all time. "Glory" doesn't get the credit it deserves. It actually gives you an idea of what it is like to have something to die for.
