I saw this movie on July 4th. Felt it was necessary for me to see this since George Washington having been our first president and needed to be included on the 250th anniversary of the founding of America. I went in with the hope that it was historically accurate even if it was 99%. Because we all know that most Blockbuster history moments made into movies have creative liberties and licenses. I felt this movie did not disappoint at all. It seemed to me to be portrayed accurately based on documented accounts about young George Washington. Whether from his personal diary entries or the truthful mistakes and redemptions he made from the battlefield to winning important battles found in other history books. William Franklyn Miller is a great lead actor who played George Washington. We will hear about him again in other major roles in my opinion in the future. I was left with wanting to see more after watching this. I hope there are sequels depicting from this movie's end all the way to his election as the first President. Young Washington is a movie that needs to be shown in school in American history classes. This is a must see movie! I give this movie a 10 out of 10 stars.
