Hostiles
Hostiles
Hostiles is 2017 American Western film written and directed by Scott Cooper about the world of American soldiers, white settlers, American Indians and the world that surrounded them all in 1892.
IMDB users mysteriously scored this movie at 7.3/10, that is below a great many other ones such as 'Shutter Island', 'The Sixth Sense' or 'The Wolf of Wall Street'. In my opinion it should have been placed at least next to 'Dances with Wolves' (8/10) which it reminded me most. I intensively enjoyed it, just as well, and can recommend it wholeheartedly.
The entire cast is wonderful and the acting of Christian Bale crowns it:
❝[C.Bale] can say so much non-verbally with one look or one glance that many other actors can’t do with dialogue.]❞
―Scott Cooper
This is a strong movie with a strong story riddled with intenses moments, one that is fictional but also harshly realist in depicting the brutal world of 1892. I found the humanity aspect to have been exquisitely rendered and that is definitely what I will take from that movie.
Since the man responsible for the screenplay, the production and the direction is the same, I'd say that Scott Cooper has gotten a promising career ahead of him.

I've just seen it a couple of days ago. It has a really strong message which should've make it more appreciated.
There was something missing though. The message might not be obvious enough to be noticed.
I think that the important scenes were not enough emphasized.
George Ilie a second screening might be needed for me to notice negative points as the positive ones took all the foreground, I'll wait a couple of months though.
Zaid El-Hoiydi The world of any age was not just brutal in America, which most Europeans have a real antipathy for...anti-America.
Thanks Zaid El-Hoiydi it's now on my To Watch list.
Ron Villejo you're welcome, good time ahead.
John Sanford +John Sanford Well, this happens to be a Western, and an American one. The trailer might help explain the kind of brutality happening there, assuming here you didn't watch the movie yet.

John Sanford of course, but nobody is comparing anything here. That is a movie I enjoyed, that is all. You might like it too.
