Sinopsis: Épico relato de la Guerra Civil Americana, una nación dividida en unos tiempos que probaron la grandeza de los hombres, un reto que trajo la victoria del espíritu, un momento en la historia en la que el heroísmo sacudió América... para siempre. Basada en el best-seller de Jeff Shaara, la película es una dramática mirada atrás a un conflicto que costó la vida a más de 620.000 personas. Precuela de "Gettysbugh", 1993, también dirigida por Ron Maxwell, "Gods and Generals" se centra entre los años 1861 hasta 1863, reflejando los héroes de ambos lados de la guerra, las batallas, y las esposas y familias que también vivieron la guerra desde sus hogares.

"Uno no sale del cine con ninguna sensación sobre lo que la victoria costó en términos de vidas humanas." (Stephen Hunter: The Washington Post)
----------------------------------------
"En lo que sus responsables han fallado es en reconocer que la historia sobre el papel es bastante diferente a lo que necesita ser plasmado en la pantalla, a saber: con vida y visceral. (...) Puntuación: * (sobre 4)" (Peter Travers: Rolling Stone)
Comentario: Precuela de "Gettysbugh" ( 1993), donde todos siguen siendo valientes y honorables. Con todos los defectos del primer film y muy pocas de sus virtudes. Para incondicionales del género.
AMG Synopsis: Director Ron Maxwell and producer Ted Turner return to the glory and tragedy of the Civil War in this historical drama, a prequel to Gettysburg, which examines the early days of the conflict through the experiences of three men. Col. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain (Jeff Daniels) left behind a quiet life and a career as a college professor to become one of the Union's greatest military minds. Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson (Stephen Lang) was, like Chamberlain, a man of great religious faith who served in the defense of the Confederacy. And Gen. Robert E. Lee (Robert Duvall), who led the Confederate army, was a man who was forced to choose between his loyalty to the United States and his love of the Southern states where he was born and raised. As Chamberlain, Jackson, and Lee are followed through the declaration of war and the battles at Manassas, Antietam, Frederickburg, and Chancellorsville, the film also introduces us to the many supporting players in the epic tale of the war between the States, among them the women these men left behind, among them Fanny Chamberlain (Mira Sorvino) and Anna Jackson (Kali Rocha). Based on a novel by Jeff Shaara, Gods and Generals also features a new song written and performed by Bob Dylan. -- Mark Deming
AMG Review: While being a tale of truly epic historical proportions, Ron Maxwell's Gods and Generals is missing any sense of focus, the one key ingredient keeping it from the greatness it comes so close to achieving. Obviously made with great love for its Civil War subject matter, the film is dead-on accurate in its attention to detail involving sets, costumes, and battle sequences. This love and attention to detail matters little, however, if the viewer does not possess a passion for the subject matter. This is a film in which seemingly every line of dialogue (and there's a lot of talking for a story so rich with battle) is part of a long-winded speech, a Bible quote, or a reference to past historical events. When those words are combined with the entire cast's wooden delivery, dealing with them for the film's unholy three-hour-and 45-minute running time turns out to be nothing but brutally annoying. Gods and Generals features so many characters, so many settings, and so many plot lines in its epic story that it loses all dramatic focus and its audience in a blur of confusion. The final product is something that sadly seems much more like a made-for-television miniseries than a theatrical feature film. --Jason Gibner
