    Well, I wasn't expecting that!

    A definitely must see film. Not my usual kind of film to watch, but I thought I'd give it a shot. Really thought I had my suspicions correct, but a wonderful brilliant twist.

    So glad I checked this film out!

    This was one of those movies that showed up on my Because You Watched list on Netflix. Of course, the movie I had watched, Witch Hunt, was not remotely similar to this film, although it was also good in its own right. What made me give this movie I had not heard of before was when I saw it was from filmmaker Chris Eyre. I am a fan of his film Smoke Signals. The story was engaging and the solution to the mystery was a kicker. Plus the current hardships faced by real life on the reservations is eye opening. Great flick. Don't pass this mystery by.

    Interesting to the end

    I really liked this movie. There was a couple of things going on that kept you guessing. I saw one poster stating they didn't like the ending but I thought the ending was just right. Don't pass this one by.

    Very Good Movie. This left a good IMPRINT

    I was pleasantly surprised at how good this movie was.I picked it up at Blockbuster. It was well written, very well acted and directed. The cinematography was nice. All around it was very well crafted. I am always inspired to see good movies made on minimal budgets, without name actors with a shoestring crew that deliver something that is on par and in some cases surpassing what a lot of bigger budget projects don't. It was nice to see this genre in a different context. It was easy to see from the credits that this film was made by a few people that were wearing a lot of hats and they did it very well.This was good story telling.Good movie making. Well done! I would be interested to know what the budget was on this project. If anyone involved knows and wants to share PM me.

    Skip it

    It started with bad acting and direction, but the synopsis had led me to believe the story would be interesting. A lot of nothing was filmed. The climax was anti-climactic and unoriginal. It was very racist and included some false statements regarding the history of Europeans and Asians in colonial America.
