In 1864, several hundred cadets from the Virginia Military Institute are thrust into battle to protect the Shenandoah Valley from the Union. I really like the actors they cast in this one. David Arquette ais great as the Union commander on the lines and Jason Isaacs adds a real weight to the Confederate commander who’s forced to use the cadets in combat. I recognized one of the cadets from The Vampire Diaries, and Lauren Holly and Ketih David are also great. The problem is there’s not much meat to them. We get the briefest of backgrounds on them and a bit of flavor of what their lives are like before all hell breaks loose. It made it a bit harder to care for the characters who definitely had some distinct feel to them besides. A bit more time with them would have been great, but as it stands the film is pretty solid.
