History Week! Men Go To Battle

Men Go To Battle is a 2015 civil war era history film which turned out to be pretty good.

Men Go To Battle follows two brothers Francis (David Maloney) and Henry (Timothy Morton) as they struggle on their farm during the beginning stages of the civil war. Though they have their hardships, they end up taking different paths.
Alright, so Men Go To Battle is a good film, but slow. The pacing could have been better. I think they could have improved this by developing the characters a little more.
The movie shows the point of view of the common person during this era. It does have some interesting stuff when it comes to it's presentation.
The acting is well done in this movie, which for a low budget film is very impressive. Granted I could not find the budget for the film, but I did find how much the film grossed. It made $17,950 as of September 13th 2016, and I found this on IMDb. I honestly think that the film deserved to make more than that, especially for the quality of the film presented.
If you enjoy films about the civil war or any sort of period piece during that era, then you probably will like Men Go To Battle. I found myself having a good time with the film, and you might like it as well.

final score: 3.7/5

Norsemen starts off in 790 AD, and follows a few Vikings and their slaves. The show goes through their lives and their trials, but it's done with a comedic spin. If you haven't yet, watch the trailer above to get a better idea of the show. I will say this, this show reminds me of Monty Python ! Some of the jokes Norsemen are gut busting, and will almost have you rolling on the floor laughing. In an age of bad comedies this show is gold. I just started watching season 2 the other day, and I just want to keep watching. The episodes are about a half hour long each, and it's the perfect time frame to get the story across. I wouldn't c...
