Walked out of this one

Rating: 1/10 (14 April 2016)

I walked out of this movie about 2/3 of the way through. As a historian, I was looking forward to this film. The true account of Hugh Glass is an incredible survival story. Unfortunately, most of the story is a pure fabrication, and there is a strong political slant attached. While I have a great deal of sympathy for Native Americans, it is obvious that the makers of this film went above and beyond to vilify frontiersmen. Furthermore, there were incidents in the movie in which Glass came across as nearly being a super hero. What a shame. There is some decent acting and good cinematography, but the story is just too, too lame.
