I hate to rip off another reviewer, but I kind of like what Ebert said about this movie. Despite having been to Gettysburg and read a lot about the battle, I learned a few new things about the conflict. The movie was well-acted and Sheen does a fantastic job as General Lee. It is a shame that a few more of these men aren’t household names.
