The Last Manhunt

I was a little confused at first because I didn't recognise the format or genre but gradually as the film played out I began to see it's meaning.

We have grown accustomed to many stereotypes in Westerns and I'm always looking for films that try to portray a more realistic narrative. There are some fairly decent performances in this film and the simple story is reasonably well told but of course some of the actors based their performances on fiction instead of reality which distracts from the overall experience. However this does tend to work in concept and I can see why it was tolerated. It's not easy to develop character profiles without recognisable stereotypes but it would be possible with a good director and better script.

Without a little artistic license this wouldn't be much of a story and certainly not worth making a film of, there is one sentence in text at the beginning and another sentence at the end and that is what the whole film is based around.

Not a blockbuster, more of a curiosity but worth watching in it's own right.

I can understand some of the other reviews if this is the first time you've heard of Willie Boy. First of all the scenery alone was awesome and genuine. Having lived by Gilman Ranch and hearing of Willie Boy in 1991, reading Mr. Lawton's book, then watching the previous movie, it was so refreshing to see this story told from a native point of view. I appreciated the fact the characters were not based on fiction but on what limited facts have survived, even if that hindered character development. I would trust oral histories passed down through generations before news reporters concocting yet another fairy tale. It's about time!

Well 8 bc i liked the movie but i felt something is missing. Maybe a bit more action or more dialogue with boy's grandma or with tribe? As a European, I enjoyed it. Desert, native Americans, cowboys are unfamiliar for us so western movies are pretty interesting. The scenery was amazing, the movie is slow with few dialogs but its ok for me. Its western. The cast was solid and I liked the atmospheric scenes too. Jason had only 3 scenes indeed but I didn't mind that either. We need more movies like this. This movie hasn't much action so I recommend to people who want to watch a beautiful /dramatic story......

I loved this movie! It delves more into the native American's backstory and customs than the Robert Redford version did. It is a beautifully shot movie, showing big expansive desert views, with an excellent soundtrack keeping the mood set throughout the movie. To me, the musical accompaniment is as important to this movie as any character. Everyone does an excellent acting job, and it really makes the unfolding story believable the whole way through.

There are some bad reviews that complain about the lack of action, but this being a more faithful telling of a true story, there were no big, high body-count, gun fights to throw in. It's a simple, true story of two lovers on the run, being pursued by a group of different men who are there for different reasons. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Whoever marketed this film needs to be reprimanded. This film has all the hallmarks of old classic storytelling. Slow paced retelling of historical dramas. With Arthouse direction and raw cinematography. It wasn't a masterpiece. But it wasn't supposed to be either. It was a gritty Period Drama.

This films posters have Momoa front and centre and I think that did it a disservice, he cameo'd in a film he co-wrote and that's about all. And the story was served by that decision. It was supposed to be about the story and not a Hollywood lead.

Go into this film expecting a Romeo and Juliet type tragedy and you'll be set. This is not about action, it's about contemplation. In many ways it serves as a neat last rites to the dying Wild West.
