Thunderheart (1992)
8/10
Great Pacing
17 March 2007
Saw this on cable TV just yesterday... Thought it was just another B-movie set in an Indian Reserve. Found myself glued to the TV till the end. Fantastic pacing, never a dull moment. The plot was simple but the acting, especially by Kilmer, excellent. That is, dramatic without going overboard.

The mountain scenes are terrific, nay, hypnotic to watch. Not that they were photographed in any special way. There were just wonderful locations selected for a very special movie.

The fact that the movie cast the spotlight on a forgotten people, along with their cultural idiosyncrasies, gives the movie a special edge.

Can't believe I missed this one in 1992!
