Horizon: An American Saga - New Kevin Costner western!

[gtb1943]

Couple of classic lines / scenes from movies that come to mind when you start to become agitated and post the way you do at times...

The day I really care about what you have to say is the day I shoot myself

You must care or you would not respond in the manner you respond to people.

I just have complete contempt for those that think everything can be put on a graph

It doesn't require a chart at all.
Costner has flown too close to the sun a few times with these monster epics he wants to write, produce and star in.
This thread was first person opinions having seen the movie.
The chart was offered to explain what was asked and meant....

MY complete contempt lies with those who are too lazy to do their own homework yet cry and whine about the evidence provided once asked for. -- not directed at you specifically FWIW but in general on this board.

This film currently sits just below 50% on rotten tomatoes. It is well-written but has like 5 competing storylines and wanders.
It is clear it was intended to be an epic given its name and the try hard part there was a bit much for many people's tastes.
3 of those stories woven into a 2-hour movie IMO would have gone over very well!!!

Looks like Part 2 for August release has now been cancelled for movie theatre release.

agree that it would have been better as a mini series

What I have contempt for is all those that think everything can be quantified by numbers as some here do and then make judgements based on that

Every star has clinkers; some have real clankers and some have absolute disasters

sad but at least it will probably get out on streaming so it will get out; and who knows it might make the whole thing worthwhile

I care like swatting a fly matters
so basically I swatted you and I move on

I watched this last night.

Went in with very low expectations due to all of the bad reviews.

I think that made a difference for me.

It was disjointed. It did not flow as well as you would want.

However with that said....I did find myself interested in it.

I would imagine part 2 would be better but part 1 was not as bad as people made
it out to be imo. It did have it's issues no doubt but it was not as bad as I thought it was going to be
after hearing the reviews.
