It depends on which soldiers, I suppose. But you can contrast the Bloody Sergeant in Act 1 Scene 2 with Angus in Act V Scene 2 if you like. You'll find the sergeant to be much more complimentary toward Macbeth.

In Act I, they think he is brave and honorable; in Act V, they think he is an insane tyrant who must be defeated.

∙ 8y agoThis is a hard question to answer because we do not hear much from the soldiers in Macbeth's army after Act 1 Scene 2, where the bloody sergeant praises him to the skies. The bloody sergeant was certainly proud of Macbeth as a courageous soldier. As the play goes on, however, we do not hear much from the soldiers serving under Macbeth, although we see him mistreat messengers by calling them "cream-faced loon" and the like. It's hard to imagine that it was much fun being Seyton, Macbeth's batman, being commanded to put on and take off his armour all the time. The only word we hear from common soldiery about Macbeth late in the play is in Act V Scene 2 where a number of Scottish lords, who have decided to defect to Malcolm, discuss the situation. One of them, Angus, says, "Those he commands move only in command, nothing in love." The scene is intended to show that loyalty to Macbeth is waning rapidly, both among the lords, whom we see, and among the common servants and soldiers, who we hear about.

∙ 7y agoThe best way to answer this question is to review the speech of the bloody sergeant in Act I Scene 2 and compare it to Angus's speech in Act V Scene 2. The first is very positive, the second is not positive at all.

∙ 7y agoThe answer below is completely wrong. Compare the bloody sergeant's speech in Act I Scene 2 with the conversation in Act V Scene 2. In Act I the soldier is all compliments about Macbeth, who he treats as a hero. In Act V, the soldiers have no respect for Macbeth at all.
