    Totally Worth It!

    I purchased the movie a week ago and finally saw it last night. Unfortunately it is not something that blockbuster carries on a large scale. It was excellent, unlike another viewers comment I did not find it boring at all. The movie is very unique and different which is refreshing from the big Hollywood cookie cutter movies. Adam Beach, Ryan Black, and Michael Greyeyes did an awesome job. As somber as the story line is, there were many funny parts which really made the movie as well. Once you get into the movie you'll be hooked to see what happens to everyone and what happens next. I really recommend it and remember there is not a perfect movie that everyone will like 10 out of 10. I though myself give it a 10 out of 10. Check it out!

    favourite film

    This is one of my favourite films. It is both realistic and uplifting and the characters are engaging and interesting.

    The film deals with serious issues and problems but the witty dialogue and humour is a breath of fresh air in a weighty world.

    I was glad to see "The Rez" as a pilot on CBC (same characters, most of the same actors), however it was short-lived and a bit of a disappointment.

    Outstanding

    On first watch it's just simply a good movie about an event in the life of two friends. On second watch you notice all the foreshadowing which brilliantly ties in as full circle at the end. I love this movie- it's much better than the show, more entertaining than the book, and probably Adam Beach's best performance.

    Should've gotten the attention that was showered on "Smoke Signals"

    This is a really fine little film that far outshines the much more commented-upon "Smoke Signals". The dialogue rings true, and the characters are more than 2-D stereotypes. Some serious issues about reservation life are dealt with fairly and honestly, without falling back on condescending plot contrivances.

    FRY BREAD POWER! A GREAT MOVIE!

    i loved this movie so much (it's descendant television series THE REZ is also wonderful was well)...Ryan Rajendra Black as Silas Crow was wondering and Jennifer Podemski embodies the strong native woman as Sadie Miracle...and Frank Fencepost...what can i say? Adam Beach was BRILLANT! My favorite lines of his are "There's a truck full of ugly" and when he is introduced to Sila's sister's white husband he says "HOW" and how could you not love them singing "Half Breed" in the truck after giving McVee his "indian name" this movie was wonderfully funny, and yet strikingly poignant as it touched on the injustice of Native Americans in the US and Canada. Tamara Podemski was a wonderful Little Margaret which made it horrible to see her white killer only get 2 years in prison for manslaughter...while his murderer would be charge with murder-1. It really makes you think...
