Buckskin

The raves for this film are way out of proportion!!

I think those who we're involved and had some skin in this film went a little too obviously overboard in reviews.. yes it's an Indi and i get it it, low budget etc but I watched the whole thing and have to agree that it just was not very good.

Acting was sub par and yes the young boy appeared to be reading his lines wth forced emotion... the worst kind that u cannot ignore while watching and it just constantly reminds you that this is a sub par low budget movie..

The story is somehow interesting. The script is good but the acting is terrible.

Really couldn't follow it! Seems the editing is all out of whack! One minute he is walking through the woods, the next it's months later and he's bloodied? Lost the plot .. didn't get to halfway.

Terrible, really. The acting is atrocious in the most part, especially the boy, who reads his lines like its a school play. The plot is less than rudimentary and virtually anyone could write something better. The most laughable part are the two 'natives', one of which looks like he'd be more at home on an Aussie beach than prancing around in warpaint. Since I laughed in disbelief (rather similar to seeing 'Amy' the gorilla the first time in 'Congo') i gave this movie a very generous 2 stars.

I can't think of a single thing that made the experience worthwhile. Just give it a miss.

Seems to me the handful of negative reviews are from people who don't have a general understanding of independent film making. I mean, if you're comparing this to The Revenant, then stick with watching multimillion dollar movies. The guy who said the script is bad, did you read the script? The guy who said the editing is bad, are you an editor? Lol. Idk people are so basic minded. This movie is pretty good! Good job.
