It’s not a good movie - it’s a great one.
I’m still waiting for a sequel.

He gets drunk and runs his mouth. Insults queers and Jews. I think he's supposed to be sober now.

It's unbelievable. Hard to believe it was made.

They always play it on indigenous peoples day and the progressive don't get that it's a total mocking of their "peaceful Indian" trope.

It's an accurate portrayal of what the Americas were like.

The Noble Savage trope is one of the most racist that is pushed by the Left. It has long been the opinion of Progressives that they are the ones who will save all of the marginalized peoples (who obviously cannot save themselves).

Great movie but it's got some brutal scenes.

Yes, it's very good. Smoke Frog had a wonderful cameo, and Zero Wolf overcame some nasty contractual obligations to perform wonderfully. It's rumored that after filming, Flint Sky and Sky Girl opened an AIR BnB in Puerta Vallarta. I also heard that it was very hard to get some volunteers for the Sun Temple sacrifice screen.

Ummm, this is often overstated, but I’d truly declare it an epic masterpiece. A truly, truly perfect film where it can’t be improved. Unless you’re exceptionally squeamish, watch it immediately.

This. The entire temple scene was simply incredible.

It is a brilliant and unique movie. Reminds me of There Will Be Blood. A lot of non-dialogue scenes and it is crafted to fit its subject matter perfectly. A+.
