Perfect cast and a good story

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Naval Sham Battle at Newport (1900) *** 1/2 (out of 4) This Edison films runs just 94-seconds but it's full of action and excitement. The camera is stationed pretty far back on land as we see a group of men by the waterfront doing battle with some ships trying to get close to the land. That's pretty much the "story" here but this film contains a lot of great action and all of it is perfectly captured. The camera is pretty far back so we don't get to see anything close but there's still a lot going on here and with the camera so far back it at least manages to capture everything going on. I think film buffs are really going to enjoy this as there's really a lot of action here including in the background you can see a bridge being destroyed in good detail. There are various forms of battles being done and just take a look at the sequence towards the end when a large group of people on the ground take off running.
