    Low budget film so not very realistic at all.

    Next time they should get Michael Bay to make it, there'll be robots and explosions with some little hottie in it...:rolleyes:

    Come on, every body knows you need to have a big budget before you can make anything realistic...

    I mean, there weren't even any lasers or CGI robots in it FFS.

    Well there was no gunshot and blood effects. May of been realistic for audiences in the 60's when films like Zulu were made but not in this decade.

    By the way i don't know if the events portrayed in the film are realistic but i know the ones in Michael Collins aren't(good effects in the film though).:P

    If you actually read the thread, you would realise that by 'realistic' the OP was considering its historical accuracy.

    Not whether or not the angle and spread of the blood spatter was consistent with a 1910's era rifle wound...

    I certainly wouldn't grade films on how 'realistic' the FX are...
