Watch this movie for one reason only. Julie Newmar.
Plot holes the size of the Grand Canyon. For example - bad guy Omar Sharif keeps the white woman around for no reason, she takes up desert water and a good horse. Gregory Peck saves white woman innumerable times but ignores beautiful apache woman who of course is killed by useless white female who can't do anything but look pretty.
The supporting cast of awesome actors is completely wasted with idiotic dialog and roles that do nothing to help the movie. The editing is horrible.
Omar Sharif is actually pretty as the over the top but somewhat likable bad guy.
Yet he forgets in the end that Peck actually took the vaunted gold.

Adults - Beware - this movie is strictly for men ages 8 - 22 who either love the Video game based movie or think Gemma has great pouty lips. (She does). Also for the teenage girls who love Jake and his body.
This is a typical Bruckheimer mish mash of CGI, action, a plot that makes no sense whatsoever. Visual scenes that are mostly fake.
The last 15 minutes is actually pretty good even if it doesn't make sense. Al Molina does some fine comic relief.
Basically the movie has a world wide built in audience of video game players.
Who knew? Disney cashes in on Bruckheimer, they needed him.

Pride and Prejudice - GREAT movie.
Atonement - Critics love you but your editing skills denigrate to some really, long drawn out scenes.
The Soloist - OMG, you pick a story that the progressives will love you for, you throw in never ending scenes and characters you could give a ratz arse for.
What happened to your editor, did you fire him, are they afraid to speak up? This movie will be a media critic mainstream darling. Newspaper writer befriends schizo, homeless, musical genius, uneasy ending with no clear solution, PLUS playing up homelessness and mental illness. How could you go wrong.
But you did. This movie is a snooze fest. Period. The End.
