I love this movie so much

Nice effects though.

An Exercise In Nonsense

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

It is the language, I do not understand why folks have to take a perfectly good story and ruin it will, cursing GOD, and it is offensive, angry and hateful language and should not be allowed. The story is very good, you are watching and getting involved in the story, there is a party scene and the people are introduced to these characters, then men ride up on this family and the women come out with their guns and then they decide it is OK to take the LORDS name in vein, that is wrong, and in my book, will never watch this show ever again, or recommend it. It might take a little more talent to find words to describe feeling besides cursing the creator of the universe. It is WRONG!!! On any show, it has no place in our vocabulary.

the hair is supposed to be worn up not down during the day with a center part. The head must be covered when outside. Dresses during the day had a high neckline not this off the shoulders bust spilling out look. Evening dresses had low necklines but not that low. Really people you should have done better research! Plus the costume (wardrobe) designer should have known better! There is a lot of photographic evidence, books, and museums that you can go to, to get the answers. If you want it done right hire the people who eat sleep breathe this stuff every weekend during the summer. You make us look bad... sure the hobby is expensive however we do put a lot of time and effort into researching images of period dresses, materials, sewing techniques, head ware (hats & bonnets) and drafting patterns from the original dresses. Some of these dresses are pure eye candy, yes we metaphorically drool over exquisite dresses and gorgeous fabrics. It takes me at least SIX MONTHS to sew one of my dresses.

Set in the South at the beginning of the Civil War. sets are good, acting top notch, the idea of fighting for ones beliefs, whether they conform to those around you or not is a classic idea, but I've never seen it done this way before. The situation provides for multiple conflicts, along a variety of issues within one family trying to keep their place in Southern Society, fighting for the Southern states rights while embracing the ideals of all men created equal in itself would be enough conflict, but with the addition of an in-law being on the other side makes for even more tension and drama. just going to say: if they only continue on with one of the Amazon Prime's new shows, I hope it is this one.

I had a hard time watching this. It is poorly written, directed and acted. It was laughably historically inaccurate. The women's costume made them look like 1970's porn stars. The actors' accents were all over the place. The one good thing I can say is that it was actually shot in the US, in Virginia, but the cinematography didn't do the locations and scenery justice. Given the healthy budget for this Pilot, it is appalling how cheap this production looks. Do yourself a favor and don't bother watching this mess. If Amazon orders this to series, I will cancel my Prime subscription. I can't wait for PBS's new Civil War drama, because PBS will get it right! Why is it that the English do such a good job at creating authentic worlds for their historical dramas, while we Americans seem to struggle with it, with the rare exceptions of dramas like Deadwood and Mad Men.
