Really just boring, nothing really happens in this. Cinematography isn't anything the write home about. I barely remember the soundtrack. It almost feels like this was something made for TV. Or something my middle school history teacher would show us in class on VHS. Woody performances some pretty mediocre dialogue. Honestly just nothing of note here. It really put me the fuck to sleep.
