StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
BrookeAWheeler If this were not a remake of the classic book by James Fennimore Cooper, I would have probably given it 6 stars. Unfortunately, it doesn't live up to the book. Do yourself a favor if you have not, and pick up the book this movie was based on. It's not one of those "classics" that are loved by critics but not accessible to normal people. Rather it's excellent writing that sucks you in and won't let go. It's also a little grim a times, but nevertheless worthy of it's reputation. The movie is rated R, however the directors weren't willing to put some of the more realistic elements from the book into the movie, instead just going for a slightly-better-than-average action movie. Nothing extraordinary here.
anthonymcdonald150 Loved this movie, Day-Lewis and Stowe are so good when acting off one another in close up like after the Cameron massacre. Day-Lewis as gives us such a tight performance. His playing against been an English type is as per usual. He does not seem able to take up the battle for the land of his father in any work. What happened to him walking and talking to the Celts of Western Europe has a profound effect on his craft, as one born in London at about the same time but brought back "Home" so often I never can recall ever feeling anything but not English. It's the strangest belonging. An Englishman can be British, an Irishman can be nothing else. This forms such moments in "The Mohicans" when there are stretches of silence between Stowe and Day-Lewis. Mann's making (rather than) directing is not like any other movie I know of his. He trusts the cast to play their parts with such honesty and the gorgeous New York Hudson Valley background, the colours, sounds, the Bobcat looking at Stowe are a delight, are a full star in their own right. This movie is not like anything that is made now, maybe it too is the last hurrah of a by gone age just like the Mohican. Watch, watch it slowly, catch as much as you can and come back to it again some night you are on your own. I think it may become one of your all time favorite movies. Enjoy
Filipe Neto I'm not an expert on US history, but I think I can say that this film, as far as historical accuracy is concerned, is one of the best I've seen. The uniforms, combat tactics, clothes, scenery, everything fits perfectly in the time and historical context that the film seeks to portray, and this is extraordinarily pleasing to people like me, who like to see a historically realistic film.The screenplay is based on an extremely famous novel by James Fenimore Cooper, although it did not faithfully follow the book. This may be good for dramatic effects, but it inevitably leads to choices and decisions that each viewer can judge good or bad. I, in particular, saw nothing that shocked me. Actors' work is very good, particularly Daniel Day Lewis, in the role of Hawkeye, a European who was adopted by a Mohican elder and grew up in Native American culture. We can consider this to be one of the most remarkable works of his career, opening the doors to a series of other projects where the actor would come to shine ("Gangs of New York", "There Will Be Blood" etc.) Madeleine Stowe was equally well in the role of Cora. Finally, a note of praise for the soundtrack of the film, of excellent quality.
slightlymad22 Plot In A Paragraph: Three trappers protect a British Colonel's daughters in the midst of the French and Indian War.I think this is a fantastic watch, but I have watched last of the Mohicans three times now, and every time I watch it, it seems to be a different movie.I first seen it in when I rented the video in the early 90's and I loved it. I never rewatched it, until I bought the DVD in the 2000's and I felt like I was watching a totally different version of the movie, and it lost something for me. And here in 2016, watching a bluray I have borrowed from a friend, I again feel like I am watching a different movie to the one I viewed in the last two decades. Pacing, editing, tone, score, dialogue and at times acting seems totally different to how I remember. It's still a great movie, filled with some fantastic performances, a great use of scenery and colours and truthfully whilst she has been hotter in other movies (Stakeout being my personal favourite) I don't think Madeline Stowe has been better. Daniel Day Lewis is superb in almost everything, however I have always hated his "I will find you" Speech. Don't know why lol Last Of The Mohicans was Maans first big directorial hit, bagging Oscar nominations and finishing the year the 17th Highest Grossing movie of 1992 with a domestic gross of $75 million.
