Review of The Lost City of Z (2017) by Acacia — 20 May 2017
The story this movie is telling is an exciting one. However, the movie doesn't really make it exciting. This is an Indiana Jones kind of story! The movie tells it in a very matter of fact, mechanical way.
There is some excitement in the quiet, but there nad to have been so much more to this real life tale of exploration in an area few white men had ever been. I missed that in this movie. It is very long and repetitive and the war episode could have been left out or shortened greatly.
Loved Charlie Hunnam! He was perfect as Percy Fawcett. Sienna Miller is lovely as his tolerant wife. And I didn't even recognize Robert Pattinson as his companion in exploration! It is a great story that should be told amd shared.
