To me, this movie is perfection.
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Awesome Movie
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
The only reason I watched the movie was because it stars Norman Reedus, and I love him on The Walking Dead and in The Boondock Saints movies. "Sky" moved a little too slow for me, and the parts that got me where when Diego (Reedus) tells Romy (Diane Kruger) that he's dying from radiation poisoning and when he tells her to tell their son he was always wanted by his father before Diego dies. If you enjoy slow moving Indy films, this one is for you.
Not seeing any trailer or knowing much of the plot I wasn't sure want to expect. I see others are upset about inaccuracies in the film but overlooking those aspects I was intrigued. It was a bit slow going, but just the kind of movie I enjoy. I loved the film 'Dark Harbor' many years ago (the only film i had seen Reedus in before The Walking Dead) and was expecting quite the same from this film. I would have liked a female character with more ambition and self respect but in the end i think she proved herself. Just waiting to see where the story would take me kept me invested until the end. I hope to see many more reviews in the future to see what others think of this film.
There are just constant errors throughout the movie even though it tries to be realistic. The police are incompetent. The detective is even more incompetent and naive. The main character is an incompetent "spiritual french hippie" who constantly ACTS on FEEEEEEEELINGS over logic. Other errors include the nonsense and falsehood known as "depleted uranium" making someone sick. This is simply not true. There is no such sickness. There is no "radiation" that people get from "depleted uranium". It would be like getting radiation from tungsten or other heavy elements that aren't lead. People constantly shoot lead bullets and yet they don't get poisoned or irradiated. There is no SUCH THING. It's a hippie myth.The movie is basically about a sexually repressed woman who becomes a stupid slut and a hobo and leeches off of others. A few of the worst behaviors a woman can do in life. Living life through unplanned emotions/feelings/thrills. Making child-like decisions. Hurting other people along the way...She's not an adult. She's a child who cares about nothing but her own selfish feelings. There are also constant filming of Western/Mid-western American culture and portraying it as inbred, violent, and backwards, which yes there could be such characters but I don't know why the movie director or script writer decides to focus so closely on this.Characters in the movie keep doing illegal things or things that can get them fired and trying to make it seem "Oh it's OKAY and NORMAL."Then she finds spirituality and native Americans and other nonsense. The Native Americans are portrayed in their typical clichés as super-connected with spirits.This movie was written by children who have only had a few bad experiences with love.
I lived in 29 Palms. The only people allowed to make movies set in the Mojave should be people who live or have lived there. Perhaps the most grating (and insulting) error was "Grandma Sioux", not the character or the actress, but the fact that the Native Americans of that area are Chemehuevi. They have been there for centuries. They don't speak Sioux - mapiya is a Sioux word. I've found that too many whites - especially Europeans enamored of the romantic "Indian" behave as though all tribes are the same. It was also inaccurate to picture the Anglos as desert rats with no teeth or all kind-hearted souls. This movie was one of the worst examples of sentimental stereotyping that I've ever seen - made Dances with Wolves look hard-core. There were also errors in geography and location. Finally, at no point in the credits do the film-makers thank the Mojave itself or talk about the current threats that corporate solar power installations pose to the wildlife and sacred sites in the desert. Sheer exploitation. Honte a toi.
