Acerca deste filme

Academy Award(R) winner Billy Bob Thornton, Dennis Quaid, and Jason Patric team up for the acclaimed action epic about one of the most important events in American history! It's the heroic tale of the 200 brave men who made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of freedom defending a small Texas fort for 13 days against an entire army! Commanded by three men -- Lt. Col. William Travis (Patrick Wilson), James Bowie (Patric), and David Crockett (Thornton) -- their against-all-odds courage at the Alamo would forever live on as a rallying cry for liberty and independence!

While not the greatest film ever made this is the only movie about the Texas Revolution that's actually any good. With that said I can see why it was a major flop because unless you live or are from Texas the Alamo and the war in general unfortunately doesn't really interest most people.

Great telling of one of the most famous battles in Texas and American History. A story of sacrifice and patriotism. A story of how a small band of men stood against the might of Mexico and thou they were slaughtered were they stood, they're final stand would reverberate throughout the books and years to come. I like this movie, thou i prefer the John Wayne version of this epic battle. VIVA LA ALAMO!

I am actual surprised the republican never sent in the blonde girl. After all the King was across the border. In fact the other way around Davey Crockett sold his king in the wild frontier for a wealthy Mexican.
