Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

winner55 A remnant of an ancient Mexican civilization has nestled itself undiscovered by white in the Grand Canyon; a chieftain from that village captures a white girl for a wife; young brother of the girl goes on quest to bring her home, accompanied by a grizzled old trapper and, later, by the deposed king of the village.What a grand concept! One can imagine any sort of adventure movie developing out of it - sort of like, Ford's "The Searchers" starring "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom," or if played for humor, maybe "True Grit" meets "Tom Sawyer." Well, despite the great concept this is a terrible movie. Richard Boone is the most capable actor here, but he's reduced to playing an obnoxious drunk saying the same handful of lines over and over again. His character could have been central to the story, but is used as mere comic side-kick. And guess what the comic side-kick does in the action-scene climax? He sleeps through it! The rest of the actors are little more than annoying - especially the actor in the ten male lead role. The dialog is whiny and repetitive. The cinematography manages to make some of the most beautiful scenery in the world seem flat. The composition is banal, all full-shots and close-ups and the occasional long-shot - nothing that heightens emotional intensity or emphasizes themes. The plot twists at the end - all of them predictable - simply drag on what could have been a snappy finish, idiotically avoiding the major confrontation the story set us up for.One of the worst treatments of a great idea in film-making history. The cowardly refusal to get to the drama, the suspense, the action of this idea is shameful. And given the promise of the premise, a real betrayal of audience expectations.

whpratt1 This is a cute story about a pioneer family who have a girl and a boy and the girl is a few years older than her brother. The girl is religious and reads a scripture to her brother about a person giving his own life for a friend is the greatest show of love, this bit of advice stays with this young man. One day the girl encounters a different tribe of Indians who wore a gold head piece around his head and they kidnapped the young girl. The father goes out hunting for his daughter and then the son decides to put his life on the line for his sister and he devotes himself to finding her. There are many twists and turns to this film and Richard Boone plays the role as a drunken prospector and scout who knows all the Indians and speaks their many languages. This is a very entertaining film with many great film locations in the West. Enjoy.

lindasprinting This movie is one of my all time favorites. I have looked all over to find a copy and can't find one anywhere. Does anyone know where I could get one? It is a typical, older movie, and you won't get the cinematography you find today. However, I find that easy to overlook in this particular movie - it is so good. It catches your heartstrings and holds them throughout - and you are left emotionally spent when it's all said and done. It really leaves you looking in the mirror and evaluating.... It's a great date movie and also a wonderful family movie - you'll want to watch it more than once. Don't watch it if you don't already have the popcorn popped, it's worth your full attention.

dwpollar 1st watched 10/7/2000 - (Dir-Earl Bellamy): Despite obvious low-budget and G-rating(with very intense themes) this movie shows what true love & faith is about and keeps you interested til the end. Portrays dying for others in a real way with God prevailing by protecting all those involved with him.
