Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

A powerful and meaningful story about the segregation of African American soldiers fighting the Civil War alongside Caucasian soldiers seen through the eyes of Col. Robert Shaw. The action scenes are very realistic and powerful and so are the performances. It really surprises me that this war movie wasn't nominated Best Picture (although Morgan Freeman's other movie and Best Picture Winner Driving Miss Daisy is still a terrific movie), with strong accuracy in costumes, set design, props, choreography, etc.

A great depiction of one of the most important regiments of the Union Army. With many aspects of historical contexts, it seemed very realistic to the Civil War. A great cast of the always great Denzel Washington and Morgan Freeman along with a great portrayal of Robert Shaw by Matthew Broderick fit the movie very well. This was a very different view of Broderick for me as I am used to seeing him in much less intense movies such as Deck the Halls, but it just shows his brilliance as an actor.A very interesting part of the Civil war, the 54th Massachusetts Regiment being the first African-American regiment, which isn't too well known being the focus makes for a very appealing movie.

I was a little skeptical in watching this movie due to the fact that it was a history based film and those tend to be a little bland. Glory however moved me and had me fully enthralled. I was haunted at some parts because of the great showing of the brutality in the war. The cast is amazing and every character has you feeling all kinds of emotions. Washington's development through this movie had me almost in tears at times. Overall this movie really makes you think and see what the civil war was. Very good movie.

The portrayal of the civil war soldiers in this movie was emotionally moving. The actors were very good. It seems obvious why this movie and its actors received so many awards. The action scenes were realistic and accurately helps capture the bloody nature of war. The internal turmoil of the characters makes it easy to connect with them.
