Wind River - DVD [Standard]

Jeremy Renner plays a convincing part as tracker in the Wind River Indian Reservation.

This movie is a rare gem highlighting abuse and murder of indigenous and native American women, while also touching on the culture of fossil fuel extraction on the frontier. Renner and Olson portray entirely believable and serious individuals working against this system and have even better chemistry than in Avengers.

Just as an fyi, this movie is not for the faint of heart. It's a revenge story and a very brutal one. But it has some of the best foreshadowing and visceral shots since No Country for Old Men. The message is also an important one about the justice of Native American women in our country. A great movie to add to any collection with H*ll or High Water, Training Day, Deliverance, No Country, etc.

Taylor Sheridan is proving to be one of the best writers and directors, especially when it comes to a modern western. Wind River was a solid story with a good cast and phenomenal scenery. If you like Hell or High Water, Sicario, Yellowstone, then you’ll like Wind River.

Hands down the best JR movie. No crazy special effects, or tons of stunts. Just solid writing and an awesome story. The Olsen sister is clearly the most talented of the siblings. Super good production and location work. Truly one of the best films of 2018.
