The Confederate Ironclad

Tries its best, but isn't all that exciting as ephemera or a narrative. It is nice to see a female-centric action film, though, even when the product doesn't work.

An American Civil War movie that does its best to play to both sides -- Northern and Southern audiences -- which hence comes across as wishy-washy. Another reason that this isn't very exciting is that it's just too damn primitive, in terms of action and special effects -- after all, in these days they were still just learning how to make movies. It's kind of interesting to see an action movie this old in which the plot is driven primarily by two opposing females, but this just ain't there
