I have watched this movie many times over the years and it gets no better or worse. The scenery stills the show while no one believes for one moment these two old men could run over fifty yards and then fight someone half their age. The language is not for children or in my case, old people. This movie, like most westerns, raises one my pet peeves,how can everyone have such perfect teeth!

Have seen this movie at least 5 times,and still love it.It's funny,has good action,and the Charlton Heston/Brian Keith combo is great.

What do you get when you cast Charlton Heston as a mountain man and put him in a confused movie badly written by his son Fraser? If you answered "a mess", then you win the Golden Beaver Pelt.Heston teams with Brian Keith - who's favorite word here appears to be "G*d-dammit". These two 'heroes' of ours spit, cuss, and fart their way through the Rockies trying to figure out what the hell tribe of Indians is following them.... Blackfeet or Crow? You never really find out, but you never really care, either.Apparently a rip-off of the 1972 western 'Jeremiah Johnson', considering all the similarities in the script which Fraser Heston penned as his own. You might want to tune in if you have a penchant for Native-Americans who moon the enemy and talk about balls every five minutes.

(This review may contain spoilers)This movie is a little off the beaten "oater" path. A must for Heston lovers; this is Charles as his career was winding down. It is a glimpse at what life MIGHT have been like as the mid-western frontier was being opened up by White American and French trappers. The Blackfeet and Crow Indian portrayals are of course not entirely accurate, but outside of an actual, fact-based bio or a historically-researched documentary, what fictional movie has portrayed or reflected exactly how Indians and Whites interacted back in the 1800's?The movie is set in and around Yellowstone and Montana and shot lovingly to reflect the natural beauty of the surroundings. Brian Keith and Heston seemed to be enjoying their characterizations. The "love interest" angle with Heston and Running Moon, and the base story line are solid, as is the apparent brotherly love shared between the two main characters.This is a good, solid "easy-entertainment" movie, OK to share with your teens (a little rough language), the family, and/or the wife/girlfriend/significant other. Get the popcorn ready! Make this movie a part of your collection...very few movies are made his way anymore.
