@THthefirst It was also not regarding you directly lol mate. I try to imply how the situation looked like.

@SharpenedScalpel Nothing to do with me, I was born more than 100 years later so I did not have anything to do with these people, except happen to be born in the same country a century later. As for the british actions at the time, I agree, they were wrong, but then at the time people had different values. The Zulus did exactly the same thing to rival tribes which is why they became so powerful. Regardless of race, the strong will often exploit the weak. Sad but true.

@THthefirst well, basically mate, you as brit are threatening someone to be punished and erradicated in his own homeland ....

if they had followed the boers advice, they would have had a chance at survival.

@Dluck7 Thank you.

@absue the portrayals are accurate. King Goodwill and Chief Buthelezi were used as consultants.

@Gwada9 they wud hav never been so great with out the GREAT ELEPHANT. SHAKA !
@CapitaineGuynemer Not true - any student of the battle will agree that the Zulus outmanouvered the british, fooling Chelmsford to leave his camp and split his force, then executed a tightly controlled encircling attack that lured the british into sending out a firing line, which was then outflanked in the horns of the buffalo. Even the british accounts pay tribute to the skill of the Zulu skirmishing and movement.
That said, they were brutal in killing everyone, so I take your point.

This film got very critical reviews in 1979 when it came out. In no way can it compare to the 1964 film Zulu - even if, ironically enough, this film is more historically accurate.
