Ratings and reviews

The World needs more of these kind of movies and fewer war, killing and violent ones for our children to see. Violence is way too common now. This movie is amoung the best ever produced . It Will keep you laughing .

If you don't 5 star this movie you have no taste! I could watch it 20 times and never get tired of it.

I think it only got the recognition it did because of Morgan Freeman. And it's about history, which everyone is supposed to love, even if not entertaining at all.
