An awesome movie. Sure it had hints of Dances with Wolves, Pocahantos (yes I said it), Last Sumarai, Matrix and other movies, but many movies have hints of others. The theme of going native is found in many movies because sometimes it feels right. The ending was Hollywood but done well and not implausible like Last Samurai was. Good acting, character development, story, and special effects. I don't think the movie was too long but the 1/2 hour of commercials in the theater before the movie was ridic.
