A great character

Rating: Null/10 (3 August 2017)

This film tells the story of a soldier who carries a bad family name. In order to clear his father's name, he accepts an impossible mission of exploring Bolivia and make a map of the unknown territory. His adventures are widely ridiculed back in the UK, but he is determined to find the lost city that he believes to exist in the wild Amazon.
"The Lost City of Z" is a slow film but it engages me throughout. His adventures are well portrayed, providing intense fights for survival. There are also scenes of his inner struggle between his family and his mission, and the resolution between Percy and Jack is heart warming. I find Percy courageous and determined, which are great character traits. His handling of Mr Murray in the Royal Geographical Society is very satisfying too. I enjoyed "The Lost City of Z".
