Cool story with a remarkably happy ending considering the situation, but this flick was scatter-brained and oddly flat. There were some nicely constructed scenes, and the cast did an fine job, with Banderas being surprisingly watchable and Henry Standing Bear going all in in the Southern Hemisphere, and an even better job not laughing at Gabriel Byrne's shifting accent--at times he just stopped trying only to start up again after a few lines--but by the end there was no there there. Had someone decided to make the film the story deserved, I can see where it might have been wicked good.
