7/10
Well acted informative historical crime saga
21 October 2023
Killers of the Flower Moon tells the real story of a group white settlers who try to murder a bunch of native people's to steal their oil money. The main character is in love with a native woman, and her family is the main victims that his uncle is systemically killing. This is a really unpleasant film in many ways. The only likable character is the wife and she's drugged out half of the movie. The acting and set pieces are terrific, and the film very much deep dives into these horrible crimes and make you understand them. But it's a VERY long film that feels even longer than it is, the pace of the film is bogged down by a script that is more like a documentary than a real character study - but at the same time - you do learn a lot about this period of history. This film is recommended for anyone who likes Scorcese movies and good cinema.
