Gettysburg 3 days of destiny |
|
This video is a real sleeper. A painfully complete amateur video. The reenactors are trying very hard to reeanact the movie Gettysburg more so than the real event. They try harder to be the actors that were in the movie instead of focusing on the historic personages that really lived it. This video is a complete waste of time and money. The best part about it was the real belly laugh when one of the soldiers actually burst into a musical number without Monty Python to save the scene. This video is nothing more than a reenactor's wet dream with a double side of corn. In a word Three Days of Destiny.......yuucchhhhh! |

The scenery and the general appearence of the set was very good. |

Only For Diehard Civil War Buffs |
If you are interested in learning about the Gettysburg battle, then this dvd is worth taking a look. However, don't expect alot of passion from the "actors" because most of the acting is so very poor, that it is barely watchable.
More shocking than the cold and dull lines were the appearance of some of the "actors". I am not a fan of the "Lost Cause", but I was stunned and disappointed to see General James Longstreet and General Robert E. Lee as paunchy and portly. Both men were physically fit and the "actors" that protrayed them certainly were NOT!
The movie is okay for its cheap price, but anything over $10.00 will be a rip off. I would only recommend "Gettysburg Three Days To Destiny" to the most diehard Civil War buffs.

Gettsburg: Three Days of Destiny |

I was There |
|
I was one of the reenactors during this event and for those of you who though the reenactors looked uninterested or whatever; the reason behind that is because there were more Confederates than federals. Plus the location this event was at was different than previous Gettysburg events. For cryin out loud there was a stream in the middle of the field where Pickett's Charge occurred. Not to mention that half of THAT field was burned by pyro so we had to march around it in column of fours. I havents seen this docudrama or whatever but i was at the event where this was filmed and the event itself was a farce. |
