Hampton's Legion

As a Civil War enthusiast, I was quite prepared to give this movie a go despite how bad it could be. However, after 5 minutes I had to turn it off--something I've never done before. Seriously, I have never heard a script so badly spoken like this. It looks like it was filmed on the 1st rehearsal. The make-up of the slave getting beaten in the beginning was cheap and looked fake. The whole thing looked like a high-school production. Avoid unless you're a masochist.

I saw the reviews and they made me laugh. "Surely, it can't be THAT bad right?" - hahaha boy was I wrong. This movie is so terrible, so utterly cringe inducing that it would be impossible for RiffTrax to even parody it - which in itself is quite an accomplishment.

I couldn't stomach more than 5 minutes. Not even in a row, I fast forwarded a bunch and it kept getting worse. I hope the actors at least enjoyed making it.

How can a movie like this appear? It has the hallmark of a school kids movie, first effort. Cant watch it! Someone spent lots of money on what would have been a reasonable storyline, but isn't. Only watch if yo have nothing else to do.

Oh my! I'm 74 and a Vietnam Combat veteran and I can tell you I've seen at least 500 movies in my lifetime. This looked and sounded terrible. Everyone seemed to be reading off cue cards. It is such a terrible effort that I can't find six hundred bad words to fill out the required characters. I see you must use 600 words even though the other reviewers only used around 50. It appears the casting director went to a local highway rest area and recruited people right off the Greyhound buses or just went to the local Mall and picked up the first group of bass fishermen they could find. This movie proves that absolutely anyone can take an IPhone and get it on Prime Video.

Not quite sure if there was a point to this movie, or if there were any actors available to portray the leads.

The movie looked like several reenactments that I have been to but told no story.

I would like to know more about the title character and why/how he funded his army.

There were no actors to keep your attention. The whole show seems to have been completed by people who have never worked on a movie.

I would have liked to know more about the Hampton family and why they made a point to mention it in the story introduction.

If you have nothing else to do, find something else to do, rather than watch this one.
