Had potential

This movie in my opinion had potential but, went off in mixing Navajo culture with buffalo. as a Navajo myself i found it a bit offensive that they did not even any of our traditional values. they just mixed what they about us with the movie. the plot has some work to do but like i said earlier it had potential. the cast did a fine job and Mr. Green did his best in the pronunciation of the Navajo words. after awhile the cast started getting a bit corny but near the end they pulled themselves together. but there is one thing that i liked about this and that is the distant relation the two main characters have at first because of their culture. I just wish that the producers had spent a little more time in the research of the Navajo.
