Should it be shorter?


I must say it has it’s good point but there is a lot of fat and the battles are too brief considering the fought for 13 days.
I could’ve done without Chill Wills and I hate to say it, Linda Crystal even though she’s gorgeous.
Would’ve love to see more of Richard Boone, strategizing and the attrition over 13 days.

The movie was actually 3 hours 10 minutes long. Enough was cut out.
