Editorial Reviews:
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: on native americans Comment: being of native american ancestry myself this movie is one of my favorites. it is interesting because you can learn somewhat about what the early settlers had to go through and the measures native americans took to try and stop them. Try as they may it was no use but that is a whole different subject. i like the part in the movie where grayeagle takes beth to her real father running wolf. it had a good ending but really they should have made it longer. i was kind of disappointed when you cant see if grayeagle is in love with beth or not but then again he did save her from the shoshone well that about sums up this reveiw Customer Rating: Summary: a great movie Comment: I really enjoyed this movie cause it did show the Indian grayeagle a kind person. I loved it when each day she beth learned about who she is and not what she was lead to believe. I loved it cause it was a clean movie withno language what so ever. I wish they had more scences for each time they moved from one place and at the end a little longer with chief running wolf her father that she found out about. I hope for more movies like this one especially about the Indians Customer Rating: Summary: I love this movie! Comment: This is not a very flashy review, but I remember seeing this movie when it came out at the theaters when I was 12. I fell in love with it then and I still love it now. It is one of my all time favorites. You can't go wrong with a cast like Ben Johnson, Iron Eyes Cody and Alex Cord. It is an all around good old fashion movie. Customer Rating: Summary: low budget cliche Comment: Groan. This low budget oater is full of every "noble savage" cliche in the book (who can forget Scar offering 3 horses for Beth and then fighting Grayeagle for her). The best that can be said for this movie is that their hearts were in the right place, and the scenery is gorgeous. Plus they did cast Iron Eyes Cody as one of the leads. The lead actress, however, can't really act, and whoever cast Alex Cord as Grayeagle should have their head examined. He is an adequate actor in Western roles but at the time this movie was made there were some American Indian actors perfectly capable of playing this role. Vies with Winterhawk for worst '70's picture in this vein. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Cinematography/Confusing Plot Comment: This late-seventies movie had lovely cinematography and haunting music, but beyond that there's little to hold the viewer's interest. The film lacked direction and important plot details were sketchy or entirely missing. The transition of the girl from kidnap victim to grateful granddaughter was hazy; it took a couple rewinds for us to figure out what the heck the old man's relationship to her was, and we're no slackers when it comes to following a storyline. There just seemed to be no discernible direction; it felt like a vignette rather than an honest film. Grayeagle came across as an ambitious movie that overreached itself and fell flat. Its political correctness made it even less palatable. The acting was fine on the part of Alex Cord and Ben Johnson, as well as many of the Indians, but the girl was awful, unable to evoke much from the viewer except annoyance or pity. The only reason we watched it is we're big Alex Cord fans, but felt like this movie was a waste of his talent and our time. It did have hints of romance but went absolutely nowhere in that area, either, leaving us puzzled instead of edified. Recommended only to huge fans of Alex Cord or Ben Johnson.
