Firstly, the Confederate propaganda is painfully evident and jarring personally. The technical aspects of the film are well done particularly given the limitations of the time. The train chase sequences are ingenious from an action perspective and well-choreographed. The plot, however, feels relatively bare-bones and becomes repetitive quickly. The two extended train sequences become repetitive after a while and contribute nothing to the story. Overall, a decent enough film, may be worth a watch just to experience the really impressive choreography and stuntwork.
