GERONIMO BLURAY from INDICATOR POWERHOUSE released Jan 2021
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 June 2021Verified Purchase
BLURAY is excellent. Fantastic colour showing off the magnificent scenery, correct ratio, very good sound and optional subtitles. For once the extras interest me. "Geronimo goes to Hollywood" with kim Newman and "Geronimo's Last Raid" 15 mins from 1912 plus commentaries and docs. Full value for money. I should be out in the open with my lifelong love of westerns. Starting with very early (50's) BBC showings of "Hoppy"/Tex Ritter, and then "Range Rider/Champion/Cisco/Lone Ranger, then RKO Scott, then McCrea/Wayne/Ford, and layer Calhoun and Montgomery and everything in between, probably over 500 DVDs in my loft collected over many years. For me, good westerns stopped around the late 70's and "The Shootist" (Yes I know Mr Eastwood was working solidly, but his westerns didn't appeal much to me). So I approached this with caution, after reading revies here on Amazon. I didn't need to worry. It is a good solid western, if perhaps, a bit "worthy", but none the worse for that. Beautifully filmed on glorious locations, it is well written, directed and acted, by everyone, though I particularly liked Hackman and Duvall. Studi makes possibly the best Geronimo, and there have been a few. The action is loud (very) and violent. The drama count is high, as it should be as we are told how the government lied and mistreated the Native American. Don't worry - the message isn't hammered home, but it is there. A bit long but it needed to be. I must point out (A MINOR spoiler here) No, Sieber does NOT die. He lived til 1908 (I think). Recomended for lovers of traditional westerns with slight reservations (sorry) and those who just love a good serious film.

Outstanding performance from Wes Studi.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 July 2019Verified Purchase
Not as violent and graphic as 'Ulzana's Raid' but a true western and the broader story of the last native American forced to surrender to the army.
Really this is a 2 or 3 star western but is lifted by a stoic performance from Wes Studi as the eponymous Native American enemy of the people. Nobody knew the real Geronimo as there were no cultural ties between the white Americans and any 'red' Indians, now classified as 'Native Americans' so Sturdi's performance is his interpretation only. It's better than the browned up versions of Apaches from the likes of Burt Lancaster and Chuck Connors that have been fed us in the past.
Sturdi certainly outshone Jason Patric and a very young Matt Damon in their roles of eager cavalrymen. Not so Gene Hackman and Robert Duvall but their roles were not much more than cameos. Still these performances added to the film and I'm happy to give it 4 stars, but I'm more than forgiving when I watch a modern western that is gritty and realistic.
English subtitles, bonus features are a trailor and filmographies. 110 minutes long.

Falls just short of greatness
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 July 2009Verified Purchase
This could have been a great film but, for a number of reasons, it falls just short of greatness, being a good rather than a classic western.
It certainly seems extremely authentic in costume, weaponry etc and the countryside is well filmed with the long sweeping shots that remind me of many previous, well loved westerns. The action is also well handled and fairly realistic.
Wes Studi makes a very impressive and credible Geronimo. It's about the best depiction of him that I've ever seen. The only trouble is, we don't see enough of him, getting more of Patric and Damon instead. Their stories are interesting but this is supposed to be a film about Geronimo after all.
We have some good performances here in supporting roles with Robert Duval and Gene Hackman as reliable as ever. It was good to see characters who couldn't make their minds up about the Apache as well as the hardline extremists in this film. Robert Duval's character is a good example of this, half hating and half admiring his long term adversaries.
The Apaches are represented fairly well but Wes Studi gives the most memorable performance by far as you'd expect. I am glad that this film doesn't shy away from depicting atrocities committed by both sides and, while the Apache are certainly depicted as the main victims, this film is reasonably even handed in its approach. That said, the Mexicans don't get much of a look in and the majority of the fighting Geronimo was involved with was against them. After all, Geronimo is his Spanish name as this film reveals.
As another reviewer pointed out, I noticed a few homages to the Magnificent Seven and Ulzana's Raid. This is a shame in many ways as a film ought to be able to stand on its own and not 'borrow' from others.
Overall this is an enjoyable film and even thought provoking in places. I couldn't fault its historical accuracy either. If the script had stayed with the Apaches a little longer, it might have been even better.

Entertaining.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 August 2013Verified Purchase
A well made film that gives a reasonably accurate portrayal of events. Of course there are deviations from the true record, especially in respect of some of the individuals portrayed, but that is Hollywood and film making. There are many errors and omissions. For example, there was no mention of Tom Horn and Henry Lawton, two notable characters. But I accept that it would be impossible to include everybody who was involved. The details of Geronimo's final surrender are in reality somewhat obscure. For example, was Gatewood actually present? It is known that Lawton certainly was. Plus it is known that Davis was almost certainly not involved, having already left the army by then. Also Al Sieber died many years later in a road construction accident, not in a bar-room shoot out with some Texan vigilantes. But these are spoilers of a production which was by and large quite entertaining and captures the ethos of the period. The film was well acted and directed. The sound and video were superb.

I bought this DVD because I love and admire the work of Wes Studi
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 December 2014Verified Purchase
Here is a classic tale of the American wilderness being "tamed".... how the interloping white man from Europe gradually forced the native population into a smaller and smaller land mass.... until they could no longer maintain their vital lifestyle to continue their natural existence.... many gave way and became dependants on "hand outs" from the new US government just to have enough to eat... whereas Geronimo was accounted as being the last native american to give in to the demands of the interlopers..... I akin him to the French resistance trying to deal with the Nazi invasion in 1939.... he was dealt with as a criminal and left to rot in jail until he died. I bought this DVD because I love and admire the work of Wes Studi.... and his treatment of the character Geronimo is about as correct and inspiring as I am capable of imagining (a white man born in the UK)... the outcome of the American invasion of Europeans was much the same as Australia, New Zealand and Africa.... and India, and much of the far east.... and I love this movie for being bold enough to illuminate the cultural wrong-doing that "westerners" take for granted.
