Wow! Such a good movie.

Truly Dreadful Film

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

It is almost too realistic but they really contorted over depicting each side's point of view.I thought I read this was made for 0.858 and released in Sweden, can that be right? I'm going to go looking for the box office... right... now.Dawn Wells in Winterhawk reminds me of Elaine Benes on a Peterman excursion.Cotton will be alright? I thought he was speared right where most people never want to be spearedHard to believe I just happened to see the end.

I think that Winterhawk is wonderful movie for all ages, I have just one request, I have been searching for the Original Version of this movie for a long time, there have been some recent re-mastered version of Winterhawk, but somehow the original music score was replaced my a haunting and boring piano music, which I don't like. I'm looking to purchase this movie if I can locate the original version, please help me I would most greatly appreciate it, my family used to own the original one, but we somehow manage to lose it somewhere, and one of the network I thinks it is American Movie Classic, used to air the original version during the winter months, and always watch it when it was aired, I never get tired of watching it over and over again, the same with the other classic movie which is GrayEagle.

While I do admire independent filmmaker Charles B. Pierce for making a western when the western genre was all but dead in American cinema, and I admire him for making a western where a Native American is the central figure - a rarity in westerns - I couldn't come up with much enthusiasm for the finished results, despite the fact that I love westerns and I can be very forgiving of shortcomings in them. For one thing, the character of Winterhawk, as well as the two white youths that he kidnaps and takes on a long journey, are not constructed well. Winterhawk hardly says a thing, and you frequently wonder what he's thinking or feeling. The two white youths don't get much more to say. Actually, the female white youth does have some dialogue, though most of it is done by her narration (cheaper and easier to dub over footage than to shoot live dialogue). Also, the wilderness doesn't look very spectacular, even during the winter shots. While far from the worst western ever made, I think even western fans will feel cheated by the time the end credits roll.

I had to watch this, thing (thats a good name for it) at school. It was just plan bad. To keep me from falling a sleep during this movie, I was making jokes just like on Mystery Science Theater 3000, to myself. Even the teacher agreed with us that is was a very bad movie. The only thing good about this movie is the ending credits. The reason is because it was the end of this awful movie. I think MST3k could have some fun with this movie. Could Charles B. Pierce be the next Ed Woods, or even the next Rick Sloane (Hobgoblins)? That is a good chance. In my opinion, DON'T SEE IT!
