Absolutely Awful

Rating: 1/10 (8 May 2006)

I can't believe this politically correct tripe ever made it to the screen. It was so boring I actually FF through almost all the movie. The story was incomprehensible. The Indians were illogical, random and seemingly running around like chickens with their heads cut off, just like the colonists. Colin Farrel is trying to follow in the James Dean mold; sullen rebel without a discrenable cause. He looks around, he sulks, he looks, he glances at the ground, he stares, and does more staring, he whispers and then looks into the sunset.
This goes on for the whole movie.
The director was obviously a fan of Fitzcaraldo, that idiot German director of those soulful incomprehensible boring movies about troubled men and their troubled lives...who cares?
