| Video-Reviewmaster.comSteve CrumFine Wayne and Ford western with equally strong Holden. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonIt's a lesser Ford, rife with his backwards attempts at humor, but even a lesser Ford is still a film by one of the cinema's greatest poets. It's still very much worth a viewing. |
| Classic Film and TelevisionMichael E. GrostLively Western full of events and imagery. |
| The SpectatorIsabel QuiglyFord makes no explicitly anti-war points, yet his battle scenes-particularly the futile, heroic charges-don't come across as exciting, simply as absurd, wasteful, pathetic, and in all senses, bloody. |
| User ReviewJo Panother classic civil war movie with the duke |
| User ReviewJames DThroughly engrossing and entertaining movie. Just enought action to move the plot along, but with pretty good character development. The action sequences deliver 100% and that is the main thrust of this movie. The Confederacy is also portrayed in a simpathatic light. John Wayne is the perfect star for the Colonel. He shows that the Union is right, but that the Southerners are fighting for what they believe is a valiant cause. In LTC Colonel Wayne's mind, he is not fighting horrible slave owning abomination. He is fighting an honorable enemy, who is mostly yeoman farmers and career soldiers. This film is still the only one who actually depicts that relation. |
| User Reviewtimothy mThe cadet scene is worth the price of admission. |
| User ReviewBarry LVERY LONG MOVIE BUT IT IS WORTH EVERY MINUTE. |
| User ReviewTerri HOutstanding movie John Wayne is my family favorite actor |
| User ReviewRyan BOk so I like the Duke, I just think we need a hero for our day and unfortunately we have to look back to find one! |
