They call it Wind River because it blows and it left me cold

Rating: 2/10 (2 July 2019)

Taylor Sheridan, like so many who start out on the page, makes a better screenwriter than a director; even then, this is his weakest script, on top of the standard direction. There's a reason why nobody talked about about this, there's nothing to talk about. Hawkeye takes a break from all his Avenging and lands a rugged job at an Indian reservation, where he goes all Dances-with-Wolves with the natives. When he finds a body in the snow, a female F.B.I. agent is brought in, at which point I was heavily reminded of 'Insomnia'. And then they crack the case (and in typical movie fashion, the events of the crime are revealed in one long awkwardly placed flashback). Hooray. This just felt like watching a two-hour long cop show season finale on HBO.
