When discussing all films that have been made to remake the battle of the Alamo “The Alamo (2004)” has been the most accurate with minor details forgotten. The set time period for this film is in the late 1830s near San Antonio de Bexar what is now known as San Antonio. In comparison to the lectures I have been taught about this subject it further explained what happened at the battle causing the film to implant an imagery in my mind to remember this lesson. This film has a great way of showing how Juan Seguin was sent with a letter to Houston, resulting in him being absent when all those in the Alamo were killed. John Bonham, who was one of many messengers in the battle, was almost entirely ignored in this film. Jim Bowie, David Crockett, and William B. Travis characters were well depicted as well as how they had died. Although this film does not pay attention to those that did survive the battle which are very significant in the battle of the Alamo. Due to the reason that this film is a Disney film it was categorized as a PG-13 movie which explains the reason it had bloodless fighting. This makes the battle scenes extremely inaccurate for viewers because this battle was very gory. Overall this film did procure all the necessary information we need to know about the Alamo and audiences can get a two-hour lesson from this
