The War Prayer (2007)
Outraged by American military intervention in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War, Mark Twain wrote a short story called "The War Prayer" in 1905. Harper's Bazaar Magazine rejected the piece, as did Twain's own publisher. Even his family and friends feared it was 'sacrilegious', and the story remained unpublished until 1923...thirteen years after his death. "I don't think the prayer will be published in my time. None but the dead are permitted to tell the truth."

Memorable, crazy movie
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
