  1. Quality
  2. Summary
    Pretty Bad 1.5

    Eh. Stereotypical portrayal of Native Americans. Lackluster and un-convincing acting. A pointless story line that barely kept the plot moving. Attempts at violence, sensuality, and religion to help sell the movie, but none of it really worked. Don’t bother with this one.

    Sex without the privates and one boob shot. Some mild but unrealistic violence with one scene as the exception.

Regarding BrianSez’s Review
Yes, my “good” rating is out of line with the verbs in my review — but they were mostly relegated to the scenery, which did strike a chord with me.

I watched it. The overdubbing was distracting and annoying, but the movie was worse.

Regarding BrianSez’s Review
Maybe because the English dialog is apparently overdubbed atop French? I started to watch but soon bailed, finding the disjointed dialog and mouth movements too distracting.
