. . . is a Must-See for ALL Americans desiring entertaining insights into Trump World and the Citizens thereof. Anyone exposed to the six months of crazed "Lock Her Up !" chants will recognize the exact same emotion behind those Trump cheers as they witness the ancestors of these same Deplorables gleefully chortling in the guise of U.S. Servicemen beheading Cheyenne toddlers while waving the severed privates of their Daddies (not to mention slicing off Mommy's Mammaries, pictured 106 minutes into the fun of SOLDIER BLUE). Lawyers for Present-Day assault rifle-wielding U.S. Border Guards argued last week to the Supreme Court that it must remain Open Season on Mexicans INSIDE Mexico, stipulating that Real Live foreigners make for much better target practice than paper silhouettes at a shooting range. (Dozens have been murdered already, which number will surely skyrocket, given the shooting platforms of Trump's Towering Wall, observation balloons, and high-flying drones equipped with Hellfire Missiles; however, Mexicans situated in Mexico City on South are safe for the time being from being slain by fire across our "friendly" border). SOLDIER BLUE teaches viewers that "America First!" policies will "Make America Great Again" by continuing to eradicate any lingering remnants of Native Americans. This is why Trump emphasized his Executive Order to bull-doze through Indian Burial Grounds for the purpose of poisoning their remaining water supply with oil spills.

Don't want to write to much. I cant give this movie lower than 7 because it shows how the west was really won and it accuses the patriarchal Americans of today. But it had 0 entertaining potential. I tried to sympathize with the protagonist but i really couldn't. Also the plot was really slow at times and sometimes i was close to fall asleep. But like i said the ending was great and i don't have any point of criticism concerning the acting. After all it was a pretty good movie, that sometimes annoyed the **** out of me. I still recommend it for people that want to see some sad true stuff about American history. ( sorry for my bad English )

This controversial Western was the first to portray white men as savages and Indians as peaceful. Bergen is lovely and effective as a white woman sympathetic to the Indians. Strauss is such an unbelievable wimp that he whines that Bergen is showing too much skin and gets freaked out when she snuggles up to him to keep warm. With most of the film playing like a romantic comedy, the shift to repellent violence in the last act is jarring. The previous year, "The Wild Bunch" had raised the bar on screen violence, but this film takes it to another level in depicting the massacre of women and children by the cavalry, a scene where everything is ridiculously exaggerated to make the point about white man's savagery.

I first saw Soldier Blue some thirty five years ago, in a cheap exploitation theatre, and i was perhaps as shocked as the makers intended. I have distinct memories of leaving the theatre with an unpleasant taste in my mouth. Here was a film that not only didn't fear the displaying of extreme graphic violence, but indeed used it to the point of being exploitative.Perhaps some of the musical score, or the paralels with the Vietnam war are now dated, but generally it remains a powerful film that also makes you think.It is at this point that i must diverge with the great majority of the reviews here. Sometimes it seems like i have watched an entirely different film, for the film shows bluntly and brutally that the Native Americans were also capable of massacres or gang rapes, for instance. Not that it justifies genocide, but it is true nevertheless. They are not portrayed as the noble savages, that most people now like to consider them.Take the case of the Comanches, for instance. They came to the Southern plains from the north, and displaced and almost completely exterminated the plains Apaches. For two hundred years they raided Northern Mexico, and committed genocide over the population. The point is that seeing Native Americans merely as victims does not respect the historical truth. A film such as this one can make people see the bigger picture, and stop trying to rewrite History.
