Review of Wind River (2017) by Anderson G — 17 Feb 2018

A small movie within his universe, but extremely powerful, sharp, well directed and well acted. "A hit man in the snow" would be an extremely common way of defining what is "wilderness," the script tells the story of an attempted rape that ultimately results in death against a Native American native, the movie script looks simple, but it is because he bets on the human factor.

"Wild land" in its first plan, it is a film that talks about losses, and especially about mourning, for those who are passing or has passed, the film becomes very powerful, since the wild land is not only in the icy surroundings of the USA, it spreads throughout the world, because we never know when it will be taken from us what we love, the film also deals with the neglect with the government towards the Indians.

"Wild Earth" holds a beautiful, blue-toned photograph, it explores the vastness of the icy desert, causing a feeling of even more solitude, plus great action scenes, with quick cuts and cameras in hand, and a good soundtrack, plus a nice set up.

Jeremy Renner is spectacular, even if his acting is not phenomenal, the actor combines too much with the role, and makes the viewer put all their hopes on him and at the same time feel his pain, while Elizabeth Olsen, despite being a great actress, seems very out of place in her role.

"Wild land" has problems, such as the complete lack of depth of the character of Elizabeth, or the plot of revelation, because what matters in the film, deep down, is not who killed, but the consequences of it, but even so , "Wild Earth" is a very good film that unfortunately was forgotten in the awards, even being one of the best films of the year.
