After years of being on my to-see list, I finally got around to seeing it... I understand why so many people feel it's a must-see film. It's pretty amazing.

The music was one of the best elements of the film, in my opinion. I was disappointed that it only won one Oscar, for sound.

Any other LotM fans out there?

One of my favorite movies.
You really felt Chingachgooks' pain at the end.

Very great film. I bought the soundtrack shortly after the movie came out, it remains one of my favorites.

MahlerIsGod · 03-02-2004, 10:57 AM

I couldn't agree more. The music was outstanding. Madeleine Stowe (was soooooooooo beautiful in that film) and Daniel Day-Lewis did a fabulous job. I have recommended it to everyone I know. Great, great movie.

Daniel Day-Lewis was bad-ass as he always is. That was an excellent film.

Ugh. I hated that movie. Made me develop a dislike for Micheal Mann movies.

Good movie. I had some problems with it, but it was still a good movie overall.

Really good movie, the book is cool too, but Hawkeye is such a more badass name than Natty Bumpoo (or whatever it is). More than likely the only time I ever cheered for the British in a 18th century based movie.

Finally! A place where I can openly admit to loving this movie! Thank you Tempboy for providing this safe environment for me! BTW, this movie kicked ass!

We watched a portion of it in my history class. I really liked it so I went out and bought the dvd. LINES WERE MISSING FROM THE DVD VERSION. for example: Daniel day lewis didnt say " we're going to have a major disagreament one day." among others. whats up with that.

AWESOME FUCKING FILM!

Reasons- Music by Clannad. The scene where he (Day-Lewis) is running up mountainsides with the music 'No Matter Where You Go I Will Find You' is unforgetable.
Characters- That Duncan character seems like your usual unlikeable badguy, but as the movie progresses you realise he isnt all that bad really- and really quite brave etc. I really loved Madeline Stowe in this, she is really beliveable. She is sexy in an old-worldish chaste type way too. Day-Lewis is a giant what more can i say about him.
The setting- Well its simply beautiful.
Historical accuracy- I think they tried really hard to get the English mixed US accent right in the film. Its those types of things that make the differeance.
I really loved this film.
