Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

There are numerous issues not with the script but with the execution. Going to the source means going upstream, which they were not. And one horse appeared out of nowhere. Points are made about the englishes though, that resonates true, and the natives, that resonates true. The people seems not to care, but the history proves that people did not care much for life in these days. The englishes more than any others (except the germans).

I can't explain why this completely film completely devoid of entertainment value or meaning gets any kind of positive overall scoring. I can only see it as political bias as some may have resonated with the anti-white, anti-colonial messaging. This movie did not inspire and had no meaningful journey for the protagonist and those that surrounded him. His story was not told in the context of the times but, rather, was judged from the current vantage point without any attempt to show why people believed the way they did. Compare to Master and Commander for a fairer treatment of the context with a subtext of questioning, a much more thought-provoking handling of the issues, and a thoroughly riveting story.

This is based on the true story of British explorer Colonel Fawcett (Charlie Hunnam ) searching for a lost city of Zed in the Amazonian rain forest. The film did not use some of his more extraordinary claims of fantastic beasts and where to find them. It stuck to the bare bone facts. I was waiting for some great scene to make the film, and it wasn't there. His exploration appears to have been a walk in the park with arrows. Perhaps the fascinating bit of the film was that after centuries, the native populations held traditions and stories of Zed whose existence has been confirmed, but the forest has reclaimed the details. Where is Harrison Ford when you need him?

I saw it as one of your best movies. I think it's a little overrated. It's a movie over the standard, but it's not an unforgettable job. Adapted from a true story. Describes the main character's passions and how this affection affects his private life.
