Wonder if it's gonna be any good or just pretty cinematography of dudes getting blown apart in different ways.

As long as Tony Scott isn't directing this could be pretty decent...he's been making unwatchable shaky cam films relentlessly since like 2004.

Did a great job on focusing on the aspects of the battle not covered in the main movie.

DVR'd this, looking forward to watching.

i thought it was average, but i'm a pretty big civil war buff.

^ yea thats about my thoughts

i watched the first 30 minutes or so.. dvr'd so i'll probably go back and watch later.

i've still not seen anything come close to ken burns when it comes to civil war documentary.

I, too, only lasted 30 minutes before I started to lose interest

I definitely plan on finishing it at some point, but something about it seemed a little off

^, ^^ -- I was the same way. about 30 to 45 minutes in, and I was thinking of cutting LA Noire on. But, I stuck with it.

admittedly, the last 30 or 45 min, i was half paying attention. like ^^you said, i've yet to see anything compare to the Ken Burns documentary. the American Civil War series they had was better, imho. although, not sure those two should really be compared.
