    High on my list of the best westerns ever made!!
  • December 14, 2008
    Alternating between genuine moments and the filming equivalent of hoky John Denver songs, it's pretty easy to change the channel on this one. Maybe it's watchable without commercials. [Real rating pending.]

    robert redford looking young, playing a mountain man who falls out with some indians and is hunted down. not as great as it sounds unfortunately. it's no death hunt!

    Rugged adventure in which Robert Redford turns western survivalist and gets back to nature. It's handsomely shot in beautiful locations and Redford is as watchable as always, but it's reliance on personal drama instead of cowboy vs indian shoot-outs may not be to everyone's taste.

    felt bad for Jeremiah when his family was killed.
  • August 11, 2009
    Good wholesome movie...I think. It has a classic feel to it but a sad ending.
