Best movie ever!

Darin

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

The faults I see with the movie start at the beginning right away.Missed opportunity to educate people on real life basic first aid skills. You don't slap around someone that is unconscious in a plane crash without checking that they are breathing, not bleeding and have not broken anything in their body. Nor did they check the pilot and the other person that was thrown from the aircraft.I don't think making the assumption that poachers would look to do harm to people in a crashed plane is reasonable as well. There are some poachers that would help others in need when encountered but I'll leave that to the storyline.Later in the movie some survival skills are explained and even some basic tracking skills which was nice to see but it was rare.I question why a pit trap would have florescent tubes around it. .The movie might be fine for younger kids kid below the age of 8 but I don't see why they would be exposed to it when there is probably better things they could be watching.

Terrible film. Horrible dialogue. The underlying message to protect the environment is annoying. And why is it that in every movie with a Native American in a lead role, he must act exactly like every other stereotyped Native American character ever portrayed. Filmmakers need to understand that Native Americans are people too, not just Mother Nature's inexorable minions out to save the earth from the evil poachers. Ughh. Catherine Cyran, the writer and director (whose other writing credits include Slumber Party Massacre III), must be another one of Mother Nature's minions trying to save the earth through her film-making. I don't mind a someone making a movie that speaks about the environment and the way some people hurt it. However, I feel Miss Cyran did not really want to tell the story of two lost children trying to get home. She just wanted to make a movie that supported her environmentalist viewpoints, and needed this plot to do it. The problem is the end result is not subtle. It is obvious and stilted. Hence my vote of 1.

Spoilers herein.This is an absolutely dreadful film in every way except for the appearance of the remarkable Dunst.She has turned out to be an ordinary adult actress, but as a child she was spellbinding. Here, the role is undemanding, but see the mark of a good actress in that she gives more than the pedestrian director demands.Part of that young talent was in understanding how to create and use the `Lolita mouth,' that reverse smile that can persist through the whole character. It is derived from a pout but turned into a token of engaged personality. We lost something when she grew up.Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 4: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.

I tuned in and i thought that it was going to be a bad film, but i was miss lead by what i had red about. I have to say that however great an actress Kirsten Dunst is, she seems to have the same type of emotions in every film that she does. I though Zachery Ty Thomas was a great asset to the film and overall it was very enjoyable to watch.Totally worth watching 8/10
