Gods and generals was not that good, I think glory captures the civil war battlefield pretty well though. Chaos mayhem and screams. I felt like gods and generals was like a lost cause movie or something. The movie seemed to focus on stone wall Jackson. He was very talented, to some degree I don't think the movie even covered his life correctly. The sound scores on the battlefield totally drowned out some fight stuff. It tried to do to much and really got nothing done but some cool battle shots Gettysburg was better. Same director but did worse the second time.
I think gods and generals lost out being based on a historical fiction series. I didn't really like it and I think fiction sums up the movie.

Jackson was weird secretive and I heard he had a high pitched voice. He rode into battle with arm high. He was completely looney and the movie would of taken on a mr bean feel. Jackson is interesting because he was talented and pushed hard where other generals flinched. Didn't like the movie I found them tKong away history a bit too much and ruined it all for me. It felt made up and not in a good way.
