Yeah but in terms of film quality I didn't like Zulu Dawn as much as I like Zulu.
The point of the clip was to give a picture of how it would look like to have been the regiment who got massacred (just multiply the zulus in that movie about 7 fold)
I will say that as a whole.. `zulu` is much more hollywood and action packed than `zulu dawn`.. so in that sense i can see why many people would like it more
If you prefer build up and an in depth look at the characters which yes, `zulu` does well...... the winner in terms of storyline and gripping finale is `zulu dawn`.
Both movies do have some historical inaccuracies.. but `zulu` is a far bigger culprit than `zulu dawn`.. In fact many of the big moments of `zulu` did not happen... ie the noble singing of men of harlech, or the zulu braves saluting them and leaving on their own accord none of that happened
but anyway it is sometimes nice just to enjoy movies and not take them too seriously or it ruins the fun
