I don't know why people are ridiculing me for saying which movies I don't like... isn't that the entire point of the thread? To name movies that everyone else likes that I don't like? Of course you're going to disagree. You're supposed to.

People like this movie?

There aren't many movies I hate but some movies I dislike that most people like:

Drive
Tombstone
Taken
Old School (Anything with Will Ferrell really but that seems too easy)
Iron Man
Ocean's fill in the number
Midnight in Paris
Star Trek

Not really. That battle they won in the end, they actually lost it in real life.


No. It was a combination of two battles, one of which they lost, one of which they won.

lol, you need to read a history book and learn what a good movie is. Tarleton's tactics were so exaggerated.

here ya go

LINK

quote:

The character of Colonel William Tavington, based off of the British General Banastre Tarleton, was portrayed in the movie to be a ruthless, blood-thirsty general who committed such acts as shooting a child in cold blood. Several historians have come to the conclusion that there is no solid evidence that Tavington ever broke the rules of war.



Of greatest concern was the film's featuring of atrocities in the Revolutionary War, including the heavy emphasis on the killing of prisoners, wounded, and children. Jonathan Foreman, a film critic, wrote: "The most disturbing thing about The Patriot is not just that German director Roland Emmerich (director of Independence Day) and his screenwriter Robert Rodat (who was criticized for excluding British and other Allied soldiers from his script for Saving Private Ryan) depict British troops as committing savage atrocities, but that those atrocities bear such a close resemblance to war crimes carried out by German troops - particularly the SS in World War II. It's hard not to wonder if the filmmakers have some kind of subconscious agenda ... They have made a film that will have the effect of inoculating audiences against the unique historical horror of Oradour - and implicitly rehabilitating the Nazis while making the British seem as evil as history's worst monsters ... So it's no wonder that the British press sees this film as a kind of blood libel against the British people."

The inaccuracy didnt bother me so much as how over the top it was. I'm not really one to get angry over creative liberties, but the depiction of the British was absurd, and that was the icing on the cake. You would have thought we gained our independence from Attila the Hun

Dude he admitted to killing prisoners of war. Its not even an argument. Your link sounds great, but the words from the own man's mouth is that his men killed prisoners of war. That satisfies my definition of a war criminal. Did he burn people in a church? Of course not, but its an artistic interpretation. Maybe you should learn a bit about film making.

Yeah some of the stuff portrayed about Tarleton was over the top. But my point was that most of the characters were portrayed accurately. And that the battles were also. I thought, given creative liberties, the film was pretty accurate (for the most part) given the obvious liberties that were bound to be taken by the producers and director.
