Texas Rising (2015)
3/10
Such a disappointment
14 December 2015
I enjoy history. I read history books and I normally enjoy movies, shows, etc. about history but not this time. Such a waste of time, I didn't bother to watch the last two hours of it. It was full of actors that I normally enjoy, like Bill Paxton, Ray Liotta and Thomas Jane (totally wasted) and many character actors that I've seen in lots of movies over the years. Where has Brandon Frazier been - I hope he didn't come out of retirement for just this. Because if he did, he killed any future projects.

The writing is pathetic; the lines are delivered just as pathetic. Apparently there wasn't a director on the site. It is historically inaccurate (shame on "The History Channel). It is geographically inaccurate and no effort was made to make it appear that it matched the right time era. It appeared chopped up. Did they cut it, to make it easier to watch? There were gaps without explanation throughout the series. New stories would start and not finish.

Don't waste your time and I will definitely be suspicious of any history channel events in the future.
