VHS Movie Reviews of American Legends: General Us Grant [VHS]
Movie Review: Incomplete look At Grant's life
Summary: 2 Stars
Cramming the life of Ulysses S. Grant into thirty minutes is impossible and insulting to the memory of a great American. This documentary barely skims the surface and relies upon hackneyed legends and common stock photographs, which they use over and over again. There is no detailed explanation of Grant's rich private life or family, his astute and brilliant generaliship during the Civil War or his flawed Presidency. The narrative limps along, omitting major events in Grant's life and boring the viewer in the process.
If you want to discover Ulysses S. Grant, read some of the excellent biographies of him. He was a grand man with a fascinating life and this documentary doesn't begin to illuminate his heart and soul.
