Visually, action director Hill may be paying tribute to Ford's Westerns in the way he positions the chase and fight scenes against the panormaic vistas, but this Geronimo is curiously bland, neither absorbing nor stirring.July 19, 2003
A sober-minded film directed by Walter HillNovember 01, 2008
Superior western, mostly historically accurate. Directed by Walter Hill with strong cast.July 26, 2002
Not-half-bad historical biopic. A strong cast helps out a whole lot.January 26, 2006
A gorgeously shot, fair-minded Western that honors Geronimo and the Apaches, but doesn't demonize the U.S. Cavalry. Vastly underrated and far superior to Dances With Wolves.January 01, 2000
A film of great beauty and considerable intelligence.
