re: Horizon: An American Saga tomatometer update

Maybe I completely zoned out or am an idiot.. but after reading the wiki synopsis..

I didn’t realize Will Patton and his band of 3 daughters out on the wagon trail… that was Frances ( Sam worthingtons love interest) father in law.. I guess I never heard them say the kittredge last name and put 2 and 2 together

Didn't catch this either.

It was very beautiful.

I went with my dad, who is 77….why are we disparaging the older crowd? Did that make the movie less cool? Did we hope the theaters would be filled with those trendy Y’s and Z’s? I enjoyed the movie just fine in spite of not being surrounded by folks obsessed with selfies, apps, and how not to pay their student loans. But that’s just me.

This is the first I’m hearing about those pesky elders and their phones…is this something new to bitch about? I wasn’t aware that the “younger” crowd was so polite and selfless. Great to know.

I’ll probably go see it during the day on July 4th can’t wait

Full theater at 7:00 on a Monday night for it

I give it 2 thumbs up, ready for August and the second installment now

Is it possible this movie got off to a slow weekend but is starting to build momentum?

I hope so. I want this project to succeed, and I plan on watching all of them.

I saw it today, I was one of three people for a 10:40 am showing.

I really enjoyed it, especially since Westerns are one of my favorite genres. Good acting, great scenery, plenty of action and multiple storylines. I look forward to the rest of Horizon, I am curious to see which characters survive and what new characters are introduced.

Costner's character was not a typical badass like many western heroes in past films. He was no Blondie or Ethan, he came off like a capable man but not someone to be feared. The montage at the end seems to show him becoming one however.

Just got out and loved it. I will, however, agree the first hour is amazing then it does drag a bit but I did enjoy it. That first hour had me thinking this could me my movie of the year so far. Beautiful cinematography. And a big thank you for someone earlier in the thread giving a heads up on the ending montage, I hauled arse as soon as it started I didn’t want to spoil anything for part 2

Also, the old people in my theatre behaved themselves. I’ll take them over the youngsters snap chatting every scene and texting the whole time

One quick question: did they confirm that the husband and son of the blonde woman were killed in the raid? I remember the daughter not finding their bodies but wasn’t sure if we’re the assume they’re dead. It seems like if they were alive they would have came back for them in that crawl space

Also, I guess we’re also assuming the woman that was keeping the kid and was found during the “business deal” is dead too?
