Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

dylanpfendler The field of lost shoes is historically very accurate representation of what happened on May 15th 1863 where teenage boys were told they were being sent off to war in the Battle of New Market where they would fight against union troops until eventually the confederate troops or probably better known as the teenage boys we see first hand experience the terrors of the civil war. The movie is also seen to be very historically accurate in the way that as the boys move from place to place in the movie we see real world places from the area come up in the bottom of the screen as a subtitle leaving it to be very historically accurate with almost nothing left unturned from this unbelievable battle

kencarr-43555 A "Field of Lost Shoes" takes a insight of the Cadets at the Virginia Military Institute and their contribution to the Confederate victory of the Battle of New Market. The viewer can take a view into some views and beliefs of the Civil War from eyes of a Confederate soldiers. Some do it to protect their family and homeland, while others fight for slavery and to protect their southern heritage. While the battle scene in this movie is really cheap, "they used other film battle scenes" the interim fight scenes is ok. The ending shows the aftermath of losing friends and families. Due to the cadets acts of valor newly trained cadets at the Virginia Military Institute must remember their acts and the ones that lost their life.

Max Pham Despite the lack of actual 'punch' within the plot, the portrayal of wartime and issues with regards to slavery during and after the war was interesting and well-represented. It provides a new perspective for viewers, as the Confederate Army is often demonized in many Civil war movies; the Field of Lost Shoes, instead focuses on the morality and humanity of many young soldiers and cadets. Robert, as portrayed by Nolan Gould, even mentions in the beginning that his father was opposed to slavery and took him to see a slave auction as a 'lesson in life', to which he witnesses a black family being separated. In fact, many of the young cadet boys held anti-slavery sentiments, scenes such as the Old Judge and slave lady who got stuck under a cart really illustrates the notion that not all soldiers enlisted or reserved to fight with the confederate army all held the same values with regards to slavery. Many of the boy's motivation to fight was to defend their land, seek 'revenge' for the fallen and uphold honor- many in which are disregarded in many Civil War movies and the Field of Lost Shoes does a great job at providing another perspective. There is a somber contrast between the cadets and the old soldiers, many of which are portrayed to be rude old men who jeered at the cadets. In a turn of events, during the actual fighting, it was the cadets that marched in order and upheld their bravery and honor, even suggesting they should charge through union fire. All in all, the movie, although a little lacking in plot, provided a great and entertaining representation of the Civil War and specifically the Battle of Newmarket.

Lina Huynh I believe that this movie was sufficiently accurate to support the events of history during the civil war. Throughout this movie, the viewer was clearly able to see how the lives of the cadets were at the time. It showed their struggles at the young age, along with their sacrifices for their people. In addition, the movie provided the fact that not all southerners supported slavery. There were some who were willing to fight for their family, but wanted a change if they were victorious. However, "Field of Lost Shoes" became a bit cliché. The love story that began in the film was too focused on. I felt as though the story of slavery and the stress and efforts of the cadets and soldiers did not get the attention that was expected given the current situation of the story. Overall, I thought that the movie provided good facts regarding the locations, uniforms of both sides, weaponry, women's clothing and responsibilities, and the tactics used. It is a movie that could have focused more on effects and the main plot, but the details and information were accurate.
