The best thing about this movie is the cinematography, it is fantastic. The acting is generally good as well. That, I'm afraid, is where the plaudits end.
The plot is dull. The endless monologues are grating. The ridiculous decisions made by some characters are annoying. The plot conveniences and contrivances such as outlaws twice the size of Laeticia Wright deciding to throw her around instead of just killing her is woeful.
Unfortunately, because of Wright's character, this is nothing but a politically correct borefest. Did the character have to be black? Did the the character have to pretend to be a man?
The ending turns the whole thing into childish fairytale. Avoid.
