Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1 Movie Review

Рет қаралды 68,243

6 күн бұрын

Kevin Costner’s Horizon might be the most ambitious movie undertaking since Lord of the Rings. Think about it - Kevin Costner has sunk a huge chunk of his own personal fortune into making an epic Western saga, with a second movie only weeks away from hitting theatres, regardless of whether or not the first makes him any money. If that weren’t enough, he’s already started shooting pieces of the third film, and he’s sworn he’ll also be making a fourth film as well. Given the scope of his ambitions, it’s hard to truly judge Horizon - Chapter 1 as a standalone film, with it so clearly part of a much bigger whole.

Just watched this movie and liked it. A lot. Old fashion western that doesn’t portray every cavalry soldier as a depraved scalp hunting maniac. Photography and desert scenery alone worth the 3+ hr seating. Good story line, great acting and accurate period settings. Very realistic. No CGI or other special effects. A classic. Cant wait for part two.

@jayskiles6116 3 күн бұрын

Honestly, saw it yesterday and this movie was great enough to get me into a theater for the first times in ages, and am EAGER to Chapter 2. Deep stories within a larger theme, living characters with great acting and holy moly the scenery. America never looked to real or so good. See this one of the big screen.

We need more movies in theaters that are made for adults, and I hope this can make some money. People bit@@ about remakes, sequels, reboots, superhero movies and so on but many of these same people also go watch these movies in theaters. Here's your chance, support something different instead of supporting some big CGI movie made for kids.

I wholly agree with your sentiment, on all levels, and I did see Horizon at least partly, if not mostly, on that basis... but, even so, it's a pretty disappointing experience in the theater. Costner's nerve, ambition and influences, however laudable, simply don't make this movie more than it is. Part 2 needs to be a lot better to save this franchise. I'm a fan of both Costner and Westerns, but that's just my honest take on it. That said, audience tastes in the age of the MCU and streaming are no determining factor of quality either; you could make The Godfather today and it would tank while the buzz builds for the upcoming Deadpool/Wolverine nonsense.

Some of the back and fourths were pointless. For example, at one point the movie cuts to a couple sitting in a caravan at night while its raining and they are listening to the sound of thunder, then it cuts to different part of the story again. It does not progress the story in any way, it does not have any character development. pointless.

Looks like an epic revenge movie targeting Taylor Sheridan; showing him how it's done. Fleeing Yellowstone to create this master vision of the White man wagoning west through the brutal elements, this seems like mandatory theater viewing to me. Love that part two is only a month away. No one has ever done a 2nd movie release in so short of a time frame. Huge props on that move!!! I'm all in!!!

Kevin Costner knows how to make a good western. He’s no stranger to that. He’s worked with Lawrence kasdan on that genre with Silverado and Wyatt Earp. And he’s directed westerns like dances with wolves and open range. And appeared in western tv shows like Yellowstone and hatfields and mccoys. This was a long time coming.

So many films now days rush you through the film with no time to digest what you're seeing, as if they're afraid to let there be a quiet moment. But it's the calm before the storm, I'm very sure of that. I can't wait for the next chapter! Thank you for a wonderful movie!

This was a movie I was very much looking forward to this year and I really loved this movie! I had a fantastic time. I really love the 1800s era and am a huge fan of western movies and when I first saw the trailer for this movie, I was amazed. And I play so much of Red Dead Redemption 2. The cinematography, the action, the set pieces, the music, the characters, etc. just all had my jaw dropping. I sat through the credits while Amazing Grace was playing and just took it all in. These are the kinds of movies I want to see. Also, it would’ve been awesome to see this movie in IMAX if the movie was shot in IMAX. I can’t wait to see this movie again before seeing Part 2 and I’m so ready for more chapters in this franchise! Kevin Costner delivered!

I saw this movie last night and could have watched another hour of it . I was drawn deeply into each character… very realistic for that time Costner did his homework on this historical period … part 2 is definitely on the radar … 4 1/2 out of 5 ! 2 looks even better!

Rest assured, I do trust that Mr. Costner will continually increase the brightness within the mind’s eye and the warmth of the hope in hearts of the audiences as he brings about a stunning conclusion in an epic example of the historical Western vision. As for Chapter I? Being blinded by the brilliance of genius can negate the opportunity to be blessed by it. Do not miss the chance offered with Horizon.

I've always loved westerns. I grew up watching John Wayne, Clint Eastwood's "Spaghetti Westerns & his later ones too, with my Dad. My Dad bought a VCR when they first came out (they costed $400+) back then. Bc he wanted to watch Pale Rider when it came out on VHS, but he passed away a few months before it came out. So I made sure I got it & watched by myself, but I knew my Dad's Spirit was there watching it with me. I used to take my Son's & Daughters to the movies every pay day & a special Dad & whichever had a Bday, just us movie. But since they've grown up & started their own traditions with their kids(which makes me happy to see) I haven't been for a while. But I will be going to see each part of this Western Saga & buy it too if it's good enough to be rewatchable.

Saw it tonight and man was it fantastic..the one fault I'd say are the little flaws in costumes and sets. Like a Brand new shiny tin coffee pot in a camp in the middle of the western frontier. Someone should have dented it and blackened it, and made it look well used also Too many natives wearing European clothes. Just little things but the story plot, characters, action were all fantastic. He tied 3 story lines of a settlement, a wagon train and a wanderer all in together in the search for land and leaving an old europe they couldn't change..t I'd love to see it again

It’s really good, a easy 8 out of 10 It’s obvious flaw is it’s the first of a 3 or 4 parter but it’s a very good film that’s more of a ensemble than a pure Costner vehicle and everyone plays their part so well in it. Beautiful score and landscapes. The visuals and the music are what stand out so clearly in this film but there are a fair few tense action sequences that rivet you to the screen. I can only commend Costner and his crew for giving it a hell of a swing and I hope it finds enough success to finish his Saga

It is a massive story that cannot be contained even in one 3 hour movie and I was sad to reach the ending but gratified to know Part 2 is just a round the corner and not a year away.

N.b. "cal-ver-ee" is a hill in Golgatha, outside of Jerusalem. "cav-all-ree" are mounted horse soldiers. They are spelled and pronounced differently but commonly confused...😊

I love classic Westerns, so I'm in. Hope it works out for Costner and revitalizes the genre....but I am skeptical.

This is the first positive review I've heard. The biggest criticism I've heard is that subplots never get resolved but keep setting up the next episode, never giving any answers like kicking a can down the road.

Just saw the film a few hours ago and I can’t stop thinking about it! Keep in mind this film is just Part I, a setup for things to come. Great characters! The cast is outstanding, BTW.

TRUE GRIT & its sequel, which is self-titled ROOSTER COGBURN with Katherine Hepburn, also, his last movie THE SHOOTIST are my favorite JOHN WAYNE westerns.

I actually had no plans to see this film but my dad wanted to see it and asked me to go. I figured why not and I was glad I went. It's shot beautifully, the acting is fantastic, and it's a deeply interesting time period t o set such a huge epic in. My only real complaint about the film is that the storytelling is very scattered and all over the place. It was definitely a movie that was setting up sequels, that I expect to dial the story in and make a much grander picture over all when everything starts connecting.

Really wanted to like this movie but the pacing was too slow/boring with too many storylines and characters for me to keep track of them. Felt like we didn't really get to know any of them very well as a result.

@johnedward8352 4 күн бұрын

It's an epic, it's only the first part of 4 that will come out. Assuming Coster doesn't quit on it (see season 5, Yellowstone)

@@johnedward8352 "Wait until part 6 comes out. It'll explain everything". This sounds like Star Wars fan logic.

@koki6te 4 күн бұрын

@@titusmccarthy It's not that it will "explain", the next parts will probably just expand the story, the same way the first Dune was "boring" to lots of people because it took its time to set the world, so that part 2 of Dune can fly high. The same is kinda with the LORT trilogy - the Fellowship has a lot more world building and is slower paced but it's amazing none the less and watching both the Fellowship or Dune part 1 alongside their second parts makes them even better.

@johnedward8352 4 күн бұрын

@titusmccarthy lol maybe so. I haven't seen Horizon yet. I hope it's not the same as Star Wars. I definitely trust Kevin Costner's vision over Disney though, any day.

I enjoyed the movie but felt it was a bit long due to some pacing issues. The score and cinematography are the standouts here. Unfortunately, it didn't fare well opening weekend which puts further installments in jeopardy. I hope people give this a chance and see it. We need more adult films that makes you think and follow along. Looking forward to Part 2

Just one error. Apaches rarely went north into Comanche Kiowa or Pawnee territory except on raids for horses and less after the white settlers arrived west of Kansas and Oklahoma.
