This entertaining film provides another glimpse into how wonderfully Wes Studi performs in all his roles. I must confess to my bias towards the film as Wes Studi remains my favorite actor. Yes, Wes plays another "bad guy" part but he does it so well!

Others in the film also do a credible job. I did find myself being somewhat perplexed by the plot as some of the elements about a "dream" at the beginning confused me. At such time as the film becomes available to American audiences it is well worth a look.
