Predictable and Too Long
PostedDecember 20, 2009
mlindseyj
from Oklahoma
The movie is far too long and tells a story that is utterly predictable right down to the nine lives of the villain.
The underlying theme that the noble savage is somehow more worthy to exist than anyone from a western culture is an obnoxious cliche. There was also a palpable smack of the good of using violence in the fight against those who do not share the identical love of the earthmother. The movie was very violent indeed - far more violent than I would have thought appropriate for its PG13 rating.
If you want to watch an eco-version of Dances with Wolves, this is your movie, otherwise you'll resent the three-hour abuse that this movie will perpetrate against you.

No, I do not recommend this movie.
