Review of Zulu (1964) by Cameron J — 10 Jul 2013
Just seen Zulu on Netflix and have to say that it still stands the test of time. If judging it as a drama/war film it is quite powerful and emotional especially with the Singing from both the Zulus and the Welsh members.
However, I can't rate this 5 stars because this film portrays historical inaccuracies about the portrayal of certain people (as it claims to be factual) and the fact there was no singing at Rorke's drift.
The film also suggests that they were a South Wales regiment which didn't happen until later and the song they would have sung would have been The Warwickshire Lad. Watch this film if you want to watch a classic but don't watch it if you want a history lesson, go elsewhere.
but all in all a watchable film.
