Movie Reviews of The Civil War - A Film by Ken Burns
Movie Review: Simply stunning.
Summary: 5 Stars
In short, the finest thing I have ever seen on television. Mr Burns has created an amazing work here.Movie Review: One of the best documentaries ever
Summary: 5 Stars
Ken Burns is a master of telling history through television. "The Civil War" is a sweeping epic that tells all sides and mixes in the hard facts with the human side of America's most tragic war.
The narration by actors, the photographs, the video and the music all combine to create pure magic.
Those who say they refuse to have a TV in their homes because nothing good ever comes out of it, need to reconsider based on documentaries like this.
I highly recommend it.

Movie Review: My Family's War
Summary: 5 Stars
My family moved to Washington Parish just north of New Orleans in 1804 and participated in the Civil War in every way possible - on the right side of course. This series has always touched me and I watch it all the way through at least once a year. In fact I was watching it when I got the phone call that Katrina was not going to turn toward Florida but was going to be on a direct path for New Orleans where I was living at the time. It has been repeated through the generations that one of my female relatives hid secrets in her hair and skirts when crossing over the lines.
This series is a terrific hit and I will never grow tired of seeing it.
Movie Review: Ken Burns "Civil War"
Summary: 5 Stars
Fast service, recieved product as promised, No complaints on program or service. John SimonMovie Review: Dull
Summary: 1 Stars
It was so dull to watch the first DVD that I actually ENJOYED dusting and vacuuming the living room while "watching" this show. Not well done at all. My suggestion is borrow it from your local library. Watch it. If it appeals to you, then spend the money. Otherwise, invest the cost in your IRA or 401K. I donated my set to the public library. It is someone else's beast now.
