Tage der Freiheit - Schlacht um Mexiko

I found the film interesting from beginning to end, even during the film's quieter moments. It added great depth and emotion to the overall morbid war theme. (when is a war film ever not morbid themed?). The film also had very likable characters, both as protagonists and antagonists, with the exception of William Miller's character, Conde de Lorencez, who became annoyingly repetitive in his actions and quite bland, actually.

It really is a pity about the shaky camerawork, especially during the climatic battle scene. It sometimes makes one loose focus of what is actually happening. Nevertheless, it was a very good film.
