I have passed up this movie several times but last night decided to watch it. The movie was not what I thought it would be. IMO worth the watch.This message has been edited. Last edited by: rtquig, September 01, 2019 04:39 PM

Just a very minor correction. It's Hostiles with an S. I thought it was an absolutely outstanding movie. Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed it. The story line, while a little mushy, was believable and the acting was top notch.

Ben Foster is good in anything I have seen him in so far and Hostiles is no exception. Very good modern western Another good modern NF western: Slow West.

I'll be a dissenter, it looked good, well made and acted... but there was just little there IMO. After reading so many glowing reviews, I was let down. Worth watching for sure, but it left me flat.

i agree with you to a point
mainly because the ending was a hack-job IMO.
too 'in your face' re. the encroaching white man
but like you said - still worth the watch (and re-watch for several scenes)
