    Great story with some glaring inaccuracies
  

*by M***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 2, 2015*

As historical fiction this is one of the best films about the Indian Wars I've had the pleasure of watching. It was balanced, portraying the subjects on both sides of Geronimo and the US Army (and 'Indian' scouts) from multiple perspectives. The interactions between and among key players in the movie added a depth to characters that no other movie of this genre has brought to the screen. At least any of which I am aware.Many of the characters actually existed. Matt Damon's character, Britton Davis, is fictional and is more of a vehicle for telling the story from a third party perspective. A narrator of sorts. Gatewood was a very real person and a key player who was subsequently nominated for a Medal of Honor in his role. That was denied, and he passed away as a junior officer (1st Lieutenant) on May 20, 1896. His low rank was as much as a reflection of the stagnated promotion system of his era as it was of the political machinations behind the scenes. But that is out of scope of this movie.One person who was portrayed poorly was Robert Duval's character, Al Sieber. He is portrayed as hating Apaches, where in real life he was an advocate and had a great deal of respect for them. Also, he did not die during the events in this movie. He was killed in a work accident on February 19, 1907. Earlier during his period as an Army scout and guide he resigned in protest of the way Apaches were treated at the Sam Carlos reservation.  There is veracity regarding the claims in the film about how many times he has been wounded - there is documentation that during his career ranging from the Civil War to the Indian Wars he had received 28 wounds. That would be a pile of Purple Heart medals in today's military, so he was a remarkable man.As others have said, the cinematography is exquisite. The realism, the even handed portrayal of the events and the acting make this a five star movie. As a documentary - which it isn't - I would have been a lot more critical and rated this much lower. It does pique one's interest in the actual events and key players, and promotes a better understanding in what I personally believe is a deplorable part of our history.

    A Better Than Average Film About The Apache And The US Cavalry
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 17, 2019*

This movie is about as good a war movie as Hollywood can make and -- generally speaking -- it gets most of their portrayal of the army as well as any other movie. Although this is another case of not letting the facts get in the way  a good story. Which is sad because the real history is far more interesting -- but would cost more to tell it on film.  For instance, the 10th Cavalry (known as The Buffalo Soldiers -- mostly men who had been slaves) played a major role in the Geronimo Campaign so it's a shame that once again the contributions of African Americans is left out.Yes there was a medicine man who was shot, Geronimo did leave the reservation and later meet with General Crook which is the one part of the movie that's closest to history. The detail of the photographer from Tombstone is accurate. (On a side note this man's home in Tombstone overlooks the lot behind the OK Coral where the shoot out took place.)However it was not a single soldier or group of soldiers who found Geronimo and brought him in, rather Geronimo eventually realized that he could not continue to live with his people as they had been living in the past -- he had no other choice than to surrender. (This location can be found [and driven to] on a detailed map of Arizona.)Also the character played by Matt Damon, Lieutenant Davis, resigned from the army during the Geronimo Campaign because he got a better job offer to manage a ranch in Mexico. Besides, no real lieutenant would have talked to General Miles as he does in the movie.I had previously purchased this DVD at a big box retail store and was unhappy with the clarity of the beautiful desert viewscape in the background so I bought a copy from Amazon but it's definition of the background was no better than the one I already had.Also, the remains of Fort Bowie are still there and can be reached by an easy one mile hike which goes right past the historic Apache Spring which is what made life there possible.Finally, the photograph is an historic picture of Fort Bowie when the cavalry was using it as a base of operations.

    Well told, beautifully acted movie about Geronimo
  

*by F***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 29, 2021*

I saw this movie when it first came out at 20 years old and loved it.  I now have a soon to be 11 year old who I want to start introducing to a well-rounded telling of American history.  Being African American, I'm skeptical about most historical movies made about any non-White group or person, so I try to research as much as possible (especially if I'm exposing my child to it).  To that end, this movie is recommended by a Native run website called PowWows.com, along with a few others; due to this, I felt better watching it with my daughter.  I'm sure it's not a 100% exact telling of Geronimo's years resisting the U.S. Government, but it gets the gist of what happened reasonably well.  It's also nice to see Native actors playing roles that depict Native Americans in the normal human spectrum of behavior and emotions under the life or death circumstances they were forced to be in (brave, cautious, fearful, loving, family-oriented, sad, etc.).  In my opinion, the movie is a classic and worth watching.
