I agree that while parts of Gods and Generals was good, on the whole it was a movie that was terribly uneven. It ran far too long, and there was no cohesion to the various storylines. With some judicious editing, it would have made a damn good movie about Jackson (who, I admit, I never cared for but found that the movie helped make him a real person for me).

I think Maxwell & Co. were trying to please too many groups of people who had their own special interests they wanted promoted.
