    Truly Dreadful Film

    Konterr

    Brilliant and touching

    Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

    The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

    I found this series to be informative and balanced, explaining both the perspectives of the natives and the westward-pushing Americans. Along the way, tidbits of knowledge filled in gaps of my own. For example. I never knew that Sacagawea had been stolen as a child and was reunited with her brother while guiding Lewis and Clark - a fact that saved the expedition. The series abounds with these factoids.I have one complaint, though. Couldn't the producers have found a flat part of New Zealand to film some of the scenes in? I cringe when I see scenes supposedly of lower Michigan, northwest Ohio or central Indiana, filmed in a mountainous area. Those locales might pass for Wyoming or North Carolina, but not the flat flat flat Midwest.Nonetheless, the series is entertaining and I recommend it.

    More propaganda than fact, rife with inaccuracies and omissions of fact. Seems designed to glorify white America, and to whitewash the genocide and racism that drove many political actions. For example, omitting the true nature of the conflict in Texas, which was the fact Santa Ana had struck down Slavery, and the ties between characters like Bowie and Crockett to the Slave industry, while deeming the fight to be about "Freedom", renders the recounting here closer to fiction than fact. These sorts of omissions and misnomers are rife throughout every episode I've viewed.

    I have only seen the Daniel Boone episode at this point, but I loved it. They left out a lot, but it's the History Channel and they tend to do that, plus they only had a certain amount of time.I like how they included Boone's daughter as being a strong woman.I beg of anyone who knows, to tell me the theme song.

    A story about the real men that forged this great nation. Great acting, narration, and beautiful locations. Early American was brutal and these are the men that forged into the wilderness and paved way for young settlers. Only true red blooded Americans will appreciate it.
