Review of Black Robe

I have watched a lot of movies in my day and have never been so appalled and disappointed with a film as I was with Black Robe. The acting was poor; almost what I would expect out of a high school film class. The idea behind the film is great in the fact that it was trying to portray the hardships of the Jesuit missionaries and the Indians alike. Unfortunately, it just did not come together and ended up being a 1:45 long sleeping pill. I cannot understand how this movie can be compared to film greats such as Dances with Wolves and The Last of the Mohicans. It lacked the development, excitement, and class of Wolves and Mohican.
