It's not perfect -- the symbolism cup overfloweth here, and don't get us started on the main character's backstory -- but Newton's performance and a palpable f----you-patriarchy righteousness pack a serious punch.
A film that understands both form and content, merging the two in a story that feels less like a piece of suspenseful entertainment and more like a warning.
It's a movie that keeps one eye on this local dustup and the other on a long, sorry sweep of American conquest and neglect.
Julian Higgins' auspicious feature debut employs genre violence to make social revolution explosively real.
This is a spoiled land, presented confidently and with a contemporary focus that offers a nuanced take on white and male supremacy.
Provocative, raising critical questions about boundaries, environmental stewardship, community, inclusion, grief and more. It is, however, a slow burn, requiring patience and attention.
