Great celebration of America

Mike Rowe does a good job of providing entertaining reenactments of little known pieces of American history. He narrates the dialogue which can be a little out of sync with the actors.The movie gives all Americans an opportunity to relive moments in history that aren't commonly known. This gives movie goers the chance to feel like they are part of history. It covers stories from the American Revolution through the Reagan years.In between stories, Mike goes to various monuments in Washington and speaks to park rangers and visitors.The movie was made in Oklahoma with actors and crew from Oklahoma. They all did a wonderful job.

Made me feel good. Loved it

This was so different then I expected. No politics, no bad feelings, just amazing stories. Some were intense, some shocking, and some were funny. Its about truthful stories where you don't know who they talking about until the end of each one. The actors did a great job and Mike Rowe was fantastic in the voice overs. It kept my interest the whole time, and surprised me and my spouse many times when you found out who the story was about. It was like a great book with a set of mimi mystery stories with Wow moment amazing twist, The best part is in the end I felt good again about our country despite the current craziness. Well done. It was my favorite movie this year and the perfect one to see before the forth of july.

Refreshing and enjoyable.

Mike Rowe has always been an excellent storyteller and this movie was a great vehicle for that. Speaking of vehicles: the old Bronco definitely fit Mike's personality.There were several vignettes that spoke to the backstory of American history. I learned a lot and it made me appreciate our historical figures all the more. Abe Lincoln called out in a dual with broadswords, Wow, Abe was a master at diplomacy.Several of the historical stories were initially framed in modern times so as to demonstrate the absurdity compared to today's standards. Freedom was not free.Mike definitely needs to make another one of these movies.
