| User ReviewCarole Bthis is a great movie it makes you think about life and how peoole are still ignorant it made me cry but most of all it made me realise that change starts when you make it change. |
| User ReviewMaPetiteOne of my all time fave movies! Wish I could get it on DVD |
| User ReviewTim OI finally found this online this morning and i tell ya... one of the hardest movies to find on the planet! If you ever get chance to have a look at this film i suggest to do so u wont regret it! Don't however look for over the top acting here but a very good st idea of oryline. The mayor and reservation leader decide in order to pull more tourists into the blackfeet reservation they come up with an idea to re-enact a battle between the U.s calvary and the Blackfeet indians starring any locals who want to participate. The tribal leader's son Sonny (Billy Wirth) and his best friend Skitty Harris ( Kevin Dillon) take part in the re-enactment and after one of the drunken men playing a u.s. cavalry uses live ammunition and kills one of the blackfeet youth sends Sonny and Skitty and their own formed War Party fleeing from the police, the army,and brings to surface hidden racial tensions that have been silently brewing through the years between the blackfeet people and the other townsfolks. A great little movie that shows the strong bonds of friendship and brotherhood yet showing how much racial tension unfortunatly still exists. If i ever find this on dvd or even vhs for that matter it will be a much welcome addition to the Kyle collection. A must see! |
| User ReviewKawai Kmost solid native american movie I seen too date. |
| User ReviewJay WAn excellent film that gets me worked up. |
| User ReviewKel MSaw this when I was a kid. A reenactment lead by aggression and want to be hero's takes a war party chased by local vigilantes into the mountains where history rewrites itself. Alcohol and jealousy infused min to min. |
| User ReviewArnaud EVery realistic movie, I wish I got soundtracks to load it inside my mobile to listen to it. I like whistling it... |
| User ReviewFilmGrinder S89% "Same old shit, hasn't changed in one hundred years."-Sonny Crowkiller (Billy Wirth) If I could curse the fucking white man in the Blackfeet's tounge, I would. That being said, it is a great action flick as well as unknown to most. If you like role playing events gone horribly wrong, check out the Canadain film THE WILD HUNT. |
| User ReviewSteve SI was surprised how much I liked this movie.....just a good action thriller with a bit of a Thelma and Louise ending all to my chagrin. |
| User ReviewBrody MWaaaaay underrated!! I didn't get my hopes up for this movie because it seems like whenever I do I end up being disappointed but it was pretty good so if you have a chance to watch it, I'd tell you to go for it.I didn't really get into it until after what happened at the re-enactment & I thought what kind of idiot brings an actual weapon to a battle re-enactment?!! After that I was hooked |
