A Última Caçada

I loved this movie! It delves more into the native American's backstory and customs than the Robert Redford version did. It is a beautifully shot movie, showing big expansive desert views, with an excellent soundtrack keeping the mood set throughout the movie. To me, the musical accompaniment is as important to this movie as any character. Everyone does an excellent acting job, and it really makes the unfolding story believable the whole way through.

There are some bad reviews that complain about the lack of action, but this being a more faithful telling of a true story, there were no big, high body-count, gun fights to throw in. It's a simple, true story of two lovers on the run, being pursued by a group of different men who are there for different reasons. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

The whole treatment of this re-telling of the fact-based Willie Boy story is too minimalist to fully engage the viewer. If I had not had prior knowledge of the story it was trying to tell I'd have given up a short time in (in fact my audience did). The style is impressive with fine visuals and settings, but the screenplay just seems to get lost in itself and leaves the viewer struggling to remain involved.

While the earlier late sixties version (Tell Them Willie Boy is Here) is not that much better it at least does a better job of keeping the story elements on track. Maybe there was not that much of a story here to cover a feature movie - a documentary could have been better.

Well 8 bc i liked the movie but i felt something is missing. Maybe a bit more action or more dialogue with boy's grandma or with tribe? As a European, I enjoyed it. Desert, native Americans, cowboys are unfamiliar for us so western movies are pretty interesting. The scenery was amazing, the movie is slow with few dialogs but its ok for me. Its western. The cast was solid and I liked the atmospheric scenes too. Jason had only 3 scenes indeed but I didn't mind that either. We need more movies like this. This movie hasn't much action so I recommend to people who want to watch a beautiful /dramatic story......

This film is very slow paced and its style serves no purpose besides to drag out a story that is boring and doesn't even make sense at times. It doesn't have a lot of bad acting, but it's not good either. Their are some fairly notable actors who fail to deliver anything good due to a horrible script. It seems majority of the film is just characters walking around in the desert and somehow the main characters seem to barely have any dialogue. Especially Jason Mamoa. His character, Jim, is in the film for what felt like a total of 5 minutes and he served no purpose and added nothing to the story. At times it's hard to even tell weather Carlota and Willie Boy are actually meant to be the main focus. The film lacks to provide any depth. A lot of times characters pasts are referenced and spoken about but never actually shown. A large portion of the film that was wasted with scenes of just wandering the desert, could have been used to provide some backstory to these characters that seemingly took most of the screen time. However, the cinematography for this film was quite beautiful. It was the only memorable part of the film.

Besides the reading on - screen facts at the end of the film, this movie is not interesting at all, and is not one I would recommend you waste your time watching. 3/10.

Original, low-budget Native American true-tale period-drama "The Last Manhunt" features some stunning Christian Camargo direction, yet is hamstrung by Thomas Pa'a Sibbett's sluggish & oft confused screenplay. In 1909 when Chemehuevi tribe teen Martin Sensmeier accidentally shoots dead Zahn McClarnon (disapproving dad of his gf Mainei Kinimaka) he & she hide out in the Joshua Tree desert as a bickering posse of regular & Native American po-po (inc Carmago, Raoul Max Trujillo, Brandon Oakes & Jason Momoa (in minor support)) hunts them. More sedate & less tense than it coulda / shoulda been it is interesting, but it's ultimately also disappointing.
