Review of Dances with Wolves (1990) by Peter M — 04 Nov 2009

What the hell happened to Kevin Costner??

Remember the days way back when a Kevin Costner movie meant a movie worth seeing.

Field of dreams............Dances with wolves..........Robin Hood Prince of thieves........JFK............The BodyGuard..........A perfect world.

Waterworld was almost 15 years ago but since then, Kevin has not gotten back to the Heights of those previous movies before that.

But he did do a cracking job with This Oscar Winner.

Dances with Wolves is a sweeping, moving film directed by and starring Kevin Costner.

There were not many great westerns made over the last 30 years or so. The golden age of movie westerns were long gone, but this film deserves to be among the best of that genre.

Like his character says in the movie.....

I want to see the Frontier...........before its gone.

The same..... we can say for westerns.

We get maybe one a year if we are lucky.
