One of the worst war movies ever made. Terence Malice proves he knows as much about war as he did bout the Old West in "Days of Heaven". It is an insult to the fine Marines who died taking this important objective. Penn and Nolte are much too old for their roles. The script is not realistic. See the 1994 version. It is much, much better. Actually they are almost all too old as the real Marines would have been 18-22. I don't need 600 characters to review this ridiculous movie. I hope Malik never makes another one. Now they say I need to write eighty-two more characters now it's down to twenty-six.
The books are told in the first-person narrative by an old man. Putting the story in memory explains his youthful mistakes. But the first episode should have been devoted to uhtred's formative years. His relationship to Ragnar is essential to the story arc. Sam Eliot, Chris Kristofferson, et Al. Narrating his youth Could bring a cohesion not readily assumed by this show. Keep everything the same but explain it. But you have to include the arm rings.
