The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

inspired gallery of portraits . touching picture of trials who becomes reflection of a time 's perception about order, justice, respect for the other, social order. exposure of a period essence. high performances. careful manner to remind the events. tension of trials. and honest/wise image of errors, blind judgments, fears and bleak interpretation of truth. a film with status of docu-drama who reminds moral values, mentality of a period about woman rights, ethical cages and admirable science to discover the nuances of characters by actors. a game and its tragical result. a war and few women in search of justice. religion as tool for control a community. a honest film. a clear image about a historical episode.

I was pleased to finally see Hollywood come out with a more realistic portrayal of the events surrounding one of the darkest periods in American history. The acting is excellent and the events are about as close to reality as you will ever get out of our American movie industry, which is usually incapable of portraying such historical facts without garbaging things up with special effects and their two cents worth of fiction thrown in for the purpose of maintaining the interest of those with IQ's that parallel the range of springtime temperatures. I highly recommend this movie to anyone interested in this period of our history.

I thought this was a great movie!! The acting done by everyone was perfect and very hard to do. I really enjoyed the costumes and accents. It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time (no boring parts). If you like good acting, this is a must see!!!

i think that maybe you just can't handle the history side of the movie. Maybe thats why you found it so boring because you are so used to watching movies jam packed with crap. This was a very factual and exciting movie. Having been in a history class and doing my project on it I found the movie very helpful. The movie was practically all fact. A few minor mistakes but overall well done. Maybe you just can't appreciate the history behind things and you should be watching things like Not another Teen Movie. Sry!
