Waste of time

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

First book/author I ever quit before finishing the book. I was a young voracious reader with no sophisticated thoughts about writing. All I knew was it sucked and Cooper has remained an undeserved successful hack in my mind ever since. So for me, this is a movie that greatly improved on the novel, regardless of any deviations.I like good historical fiction but expecting 'good' at the movies was always crapshoot. I remember being so skeptical as the lights went down. The French/Indian war is a wealth of action/adventure stories and I've never understood why there hadn't been anything good since Drums Along the Mohawk (1939) and Northwest Passage (1940). When the carriage crossed the bridge in that gorgeous shot, I relaxed. But when Magua stepped out of the shadows...oh boy. I still think he is one of film's greatest villains."Magua understand the white man very well."The care and attention to detail is astonishing. This is one of the best blends of modern sensibilities and popular 18th century form of adventure/romance. There's even a car chase in canoes. I put this on the same shelf with "Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World)" and "The Kingdom of Heaven".

Last of the mohicans is directed by Michael Mann, and it stars Daniel Day Lewis, Madeleine Stowe, Russel Means and Wes Studi. The film depicts depicts the French and Indian war in 1757. This film is absolutely amazing. It holds no punches back in the depiction of war, both dramatically and in the way it exploits the violence of it. It's an authentic portrayal and unbiased as much as the director can. While the director caters more towards the settlers, giving them more reasons than just land, he also gives layered reasons for the natives as possible, to make the war more engaging and believableSo the story revolves around mostly Hawkeye, the main character, and Cora, who are caught in the middle of the conflict. Hawkeye just wants to find his true self, as he is the adoptive son of Chingachgook. Between his intriguing past, his dedication and unconditional love for Cora (though the love story and chemistry I find to be the weakest part of the film, but still solid), all of this within the war going on, makes him a well layered character to follow, and its all powered by Daniel Day Lewis' fantastic performance. All of the actors do a great job, and I can't think of a single bad performance. Even side characters are given such weight. It reminded me of the dark knight, where Jim Gordon has such presence thanks to the writing and acting. Same happens here. One of the main positives (that's an understatement) is how the film balances acting in a full circle. The movie doesn't just rely on dialogue (as good as it is), it also gives priority to body language and facial expression, adding more depth and natural progression to the characters. It makes them more human and relatable. And there is something to be mentioned: Magua has to be one of the most underrated film villains to ever come. Sympathetic, ruthless, honorable are just some of the words to describe the character, excellently portrayed by Wes Studi. His motivations and hatred for the English is fleshed out, from a tragic past, full of blood, it is understandable why Magua took such a bloody path of hatred and violence. The movie looks and feels magnificent. Whoever did the cinematography truly deserves an Oscar. Its visually enlightening, the camera work is graceful, giving you a complete vision of everything going on the screen as you can get, and the color palette adds a unique atmosphere to the film. they add an epic and beautiful scale to give you a full experience of the movie. It's arguably the greatest adventure movie ever made. And of course, how can anyone forget the iconic and great musical score? Every time it hits the screen, it gives me goosebumps. You feel like its telling a story to you. What more can I say? The film is excellently crafted with such care and passion that no film buff or fan should skip. Truly amazing.

while i'm watching the movie , and after 50 minutes , i asked myself why i have not heared about this movie before ? Why the rating isn't above 8 ? i was really enjoying it and so confused because it was a great movie for me . but at the end i knew why The director ruined it with that weak ending He seems like he couldn't sacrifice one of the main characters where he should have , He killed the two secondary characters whom i was not having any feeling about them , just to let us see the two main characters sad ! will unfortunately it didn't work. for me it was an awful ending to a great movie . Before i see the ending my intention was to rate this movie 10 or 9 . after i saw it i could not .Daniel Day Lewis as always great performance and i watched the movie because of himAmazing soundtrack8/10

Plot In A Paragraph: Three trappers protect a British Colonel's daughters in the midst of the French and Indian War.I think this is a fantastic watch, but I have watched last of the Mohicans three times now, and every time I watch it, it seems to be a different movie.I first seen it in when I rented the video in the early 90's and I loved it. I never rewatched it, until I bought the DVD in the 2000's and I felt like I was watching a totally different version of the movie, and it lost something for me. And here in 2016, watching a bluray I have borrowed from a friend, I again feel like I am watching a different movie to the one I viewed in the last two decades. Pacing, editing, tone, score, dialogue and at times acting seems totally different to how I remember. It's still a great movie, filled with some fantastic performances, a great use of scenery and colours and truthfully whilst she has been hotter in other movies (Stakeout being my personal favourite) I don't think Madeline Stowe has been better. Daniel Day Lewis is superb in almost everything, however I have always hated his "I will find you" Speech. Don't know why lol Last Of The Mohicans was Maans first big directorial hit, bagging Oscar nominations and finishing the year the 17th Highest Grossing movie of 1992 with a domestic gross of $75 million.
