    That's the one!

    It's kinda dumb but... I was the right age when it came out.

    I enjoyed the movie, I found it kind of bizarre.

    I'm hesitating to like this movie as I sit here with it on pause... The acting is good, but I'm not sure I care for the initial handling of the topic of Native Americans. I feel like it's a touchy subject. The movie acts as if it has no bearing whatsoever on the present state of affairs. I'm not sure I'd care for it if I were Native American.

    That aside, Christian Bale is good. I haven't seen much of Rosamund Pike yet, and I'm entirely uncertain of who Wes Studi is (good thing I have google! :) )

    This is Wes Studi. He plays a chief I think...

    The movie is worth watching, but it doesn't make me feel very good about the way our country treated Native Americans. Maybe that's honesty, I don't know...

    This movie has a whole lot of narrative by Jessica Chastain. If that doesn't bother you, it's a somewhat interesting watch! :)

    Its a must see for every scifi lover imo!

    And to the scifi lovers reading this who haven't watched it: its important you avoid any chance for spoilers/don't look up the plot before watching

    That's true but I gotta mention that scene where he finds the unicorn, tames it and rides it was pretty sweet.

    Good movie! :) But while some lines are in English, others are in Urdu, Hindi, or other dialects. You really need to turn the subtitles on for this one. Shah Rukh Khan is really good! he portrays a man with Aspergers syndrome really well. I liked this movie. It was a heart warmer. This may partially be due to discussions about India from Cultural Anthropology, but I think it stands alone as well. Bravo!
