This makes Napoleon's movie like a 5th grade's project.

I don't know what's more terrifying, standing still while a barrage of canons come at you, or slowly walking into the enemy with their pikes pointed at you.

This was amazingly accurate. The cavalry attacked correctly, and broke away when confronted with pikes. The push of pike was excellent, and not something you usually see in a movie. The outfits looked great and they where using period appropriate firearms and armor! Whoever put that much detail in this deserves a raise, they went all out.

Non-CGI battles are so great even if we are just watching smaller skirmishes. The bodies have mass...not just a computer generated "flood". The costumes, the weapons..just fantastic!

Makes sense that Aragorn would join the Spanish Tercios, one of the greatest infantry forces in European history. One third swordsman, one third riflemen, one third pikemen.

Darn, this was a good depiction of a tercio in battle. Even the dreaded 'Push of Pike' was included...and well done.

as a child I wanted to look like the hero of a western, as a teenager I wanted to look like the heroes of Marvel, as an adult I want to look like Captain Alatriste from this marvelous film that I have seen and seen again.

Wish they made more movies or shows set during this time period. Kind of tired of seeing knights and men at arms charging into each other into a huge mosh pit comprised of individual duels. Imagine the audiences reaction seeing the birth of early modern warfare tear down the once powerful knights and the honourable way of fighting taken over by gun powder.

When a great empire is falling, it has to know how to fall gracefully, and nobody ever knew how to do it like the Spanish.
The sunset of an empire was never so glorious .

The cinematography in this movie is amazing. Every single shot looks like a Renaissance painting brought to life, and many of them actually are.

The ambientation and costume of this film is just flawless, no joke that many of the material used comes from weaponry museums as original weapons of the time. Also the garments are very accurate. I think of historical movies this is a masterpiece for relatively low budget production. Also it is quite impressive for Viggo Mortensen play a role in Spanish. This aged so well, just so hyped that this film exists so well adapted

Spanish Tercios, a formation and battle discipline that will forever be remembered.

that pike battle scary

You can’t help but feel the deepest admiration for those men who fought and died in battles like this. They literally knew they were outgunned and outnumbered, but stayed and fought. Courage, indeed the highest form of bravery.

Los temibles tercios españoles, la infantería más poderosa de su tiempo, dominaron los campos de batalla europeos durante más de siglo y medio. Saludos desde México, viva la hispanidad!!

I have renewed respect for the production of this scene. After seeing so many over-the-top "historical" movies relying on CGI, this is battle scene is a breath of fresh air.

Cannon behaving like cannon, solid iron cannon balls not behaving like mini-nukes packed with napalm, cavalry behaving like cavalry when confronted by an infantry square and a push of pike that actually looks like a push of pike. Damn! This director deserves an Oscar
