Product Description:
In 1898 the US government, led by Theodore Roosevelt (Tom Berenger) back when he was still a young, ambitious Naval Secretary, intervenes on the side of the Cuban rebels in their struggle against Spanish rule. Always ready for action, Roosevelt leaves the confines of the sidelines and forms a volunteer cavalry regiment which later became infamously known as the "Rough Riders." Roosevelt's regiment brings together volunteers from all corners of the nation to fight against a far superior adversary in one of the most rousing victories in American history.

Well acted by the cast, this movie doesn't have any flat spots. One of the appeals of the moive is the small scenes that though not essential to the plot give a sense of time and purpose.

The Spanish American war is a bit of history I was not familiar with at all. I knew about Teddy and the charge up San Juan Hill but mostly as legend not history. Now I have a somewhat better understanding of the whys and wherefores regarding this episode of American History. A good friend is in the movie and he encouraged me to watch it and learn this history, simple as it is. I am glad I did. A bit of history lesson via the entertainment industry. I thought the production was excellent, very realistic. I did not fall asleep which I tend to do. A big plus to the movie is of course Sam Elliott. He makes any movie very watchable. Tom Berenger did a great job and I really liked Gary Busey. Coming from the South myself, I could really relate to how his character thought about things.

I am of Cuban/Spanish descent my great-grandfather, Eduardo Saumell de Vergara, (born in Spain and moved to Cuba as an infant) fought against his ancestors on the side of the Cuban rebels (aka. Mambises). Through the generations his story was told time again to his descendants. My father had his grandfather's machete and scabbard with which he fought. A cousin has seen the film and claims it to be historically accurate. Unfortunately, I cannot purchase the video as it is out of stock. Disappointed!
