  • @NGC773 i know,but really what movie based on history doesnt stretch the truth? thats kinda the fun part about it,people get creative and stuff

  • @gijoetroop66 But its portraying histrogical events. Its like a movie being made about 9/11 but instead of planes hitting the towers it was missiles or some other bullshit which isnt what happened

  • @NGC773 It is a movie after all.

  • Anyone here ever actually fired a real musket?

  • @mavisformula Yes they did they spliced the ideas from the battles together for the film

  • There seem to be far more casualties depicted in the movie than there were in the real battle; I think they incorporated the Cowpens and Guilfords Courthouse battles together; either way it was well done

  • @ImATiger4487 True

  • @NGC773 thats why its a movie....

  • @NGC773 On the contrary, the battle of Cowpens happened as depicted. The American army ran on orders, unlike the earlier Battle of Camden, where the militia ran and lost thed battle. The British fell into thed trap when they followed the retreating American army over hill. Accurate!

  • Most unrealistic and unhistorical battle of the entire movie
