Let's be realistic.
It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
View MoreLet me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
View MoreI liked this film because it is a tribute film to the real Wilma Mankiller who was such an instrumental leader for her Cherokee folks. When she conducted the water project, there were those who didn't want the project to be completed since there were (and still are) many racists who didn't want to co-operate with them. It was always an obstacle after the next with it. Although the project was completed, it didn't go through without any hitches. There were many problems that went with it, like promises by equipment companies that weren't kept, leasing companies who threatened the People that they would lose their licenses if they didn't do things the non-Cherokee groups told them to do. The Tribal Council had many non-Cherokees making decisions for the People that wasn't right. It was unfair that the project took longer to complete than usual. Anyways... it's really unfortunate that Mankiller passed on way too young because she was a real dynamic leader for her folks.
