Hostiles Ratings & Reviews
- drslevyMarch 25, 2025Great cast even better movie.
- 0 1September 23, 2025By far the Best western of the last 25 years. excellent script and acting. the style of the film differs from the past western movies which romanticize this time in history. Hostiles is more realistic.
- mickerdooSeptember 7, 2025Some of the dialogue was delivered too slow. But otherwise a scenic smorgasbord with violence and character realization.
- dash10November 8, 2025It's a slow burn of a movie but a good watch.
- Aaron SpeightJune 9, 2025Great movie, gritty and thought provoking, amazing visuals and soundtrack.
- brian.ho93September 21, 2025Such a mediocre, boring movie. Whoever cast Rosamund Pike in this shouldn't be casting in Hollywood anymore. Nothing wrong with her but she doesn't blend into this world at all.
- Charles LondonFebruary 5, 2025The age of the western peaked many years ago but Hostiles is a fairly solid entry into the genre. It's not a perfect film. It spends much of its capital early with some very intense scenes, not the least of which is an opening that is guaranteed to grab your attention. If there's a problem, it's that the last half of the movie doesn't quite equal its promising beginning. The cinematography however is excellent throughout and Rosamund Pike gives an award-worthy performance. The story here is about a war-weary cavalry captain and an adversarial Cheyenne chief coming to terms with each other's past transgressions at the tail end of the American Indian Wars. I could nitpick the script, perhaps there was more death than needed to drive home the filmmakers' point and maybe it was just a tad drawn out, but in the end I liked Hostiles albeit just not quite as much as I thought I would after the drama of the opening scene.
