But when they add based on a true stroy americans are stupid enough to take it as true history.

it's funny about how much historical inaccuracies there are in this film
1. only about 1/3 of americans supported the war effort. the 2/3 of americans either did not care or were loyalists.
2. Many slaves actually supported the British and native americans supported the British as well.
3. The British did not commit those atrocities depicted in the film. It is a complete exaggeration of the war.

I don't know what would movies be without John Williams. Scores are meant to fit the screen, but JW always goes well beyond that, and that's why most of his scores are so epic.
I don't know about you, but IMHO movie scores are starting to suck just like the rest of the music industry.They fit the screen, and that's it.. No one writes something memorable, something that will be remembered for years.
Just my thoughts.

This is the same type of douchebag that bitched about 300 not being accurate. ITS A FUCKING MOVIE MORON NOT A HISTORICAL DOCUMENTARY!
If you want documentary go watch the History of Discovery channel...they have them on all the time...

It would be nice if some Americans, Brits and other anti-Brit/Americans could open a few history books (not just one) and read before posting their oppinionated views on here. I have read 5 books on things directly or indirectly related to this and, coupled with Americans habit of skewing history in their films (U-571 being a brilliant example) I'd say this is a good film but nothing more. there is being flexible with historical events and then simply rewriting history, which is here.
