    I honestly don't get why the user rating is so low for Texas Rising. It definitely wasn't a great miniseries, had some inaccuracies here and there (like MOST non-fictional works), but the acting was pretty good and the battles were acceptable. It's a very forgettable series though. It's not something you would WANT to watch more than once.

But for those who claim this miniseries had nothing redeemable about it, I only have two words to say: RAY LIOTTA.

    The disclaimer before title sequence should read 'fictional fantasy based on romanticized personal accounts'. This show is like most people have pointed out is filmed in California not Texas. There's no reason to have the cast do exaggerated accents . Santa Anna I have a feeling will have a drastically different outcome after his defeat than what happened in real life.

    Bir dizi olarak bütçesi düşük ve senaryosu da açıkçası oldukça başarısız. Karakter yaratımı ve oyunculuk için de aynı şeyleri söyleyebilirim. Ancak bir tarihi dizi olarak history channel'ın hikayeyi anlatış biçimi ve texas rangerslarına dair aktardıklarıyla Houston'nın kimin nesi olduğuna dair tarihsel anlatısı başarılı. 1836 amerikası ve texas meksika savaşını merak edenlere tavsiyeBir dizi olarak bütçesi düşük ve senaryosu da açıkçası oldukça başarısız.

    The action is so saddled with laughable dialogue and dreadful pacing that not even Paxton's always entertaining scene-chewing can make this inherently interesting tale pop as it should. [29 May/5 Jun 2015, p.98]

    The overall plotting is as disjointed as it is clichéd.

    Texas Rising is tonally challenged in a way that regularly undercuts its own inherent drama.
