The Searchers (1956)

This was an alright film. This film had a great way of conveying some good plot points but its theme just seemed to lost its way halfway through the movie as it goes on for a bit too long and some plot points, that are introduced early on, are just forgotten as they aren't useful anymore. It may just be me, because i'm not particularly a fan of the spaghetti western genre, but i just didn't particularly think most of this movie was entertaining. I do however see how others would really like this movie: it has some really good acting and some nice setting choices and quite a nice soundtrack but its not really to my fancy. The plot surrounds the kidnapping of a child by the Native Americans and a group of people going to go search for them. *roll credits*. There are some twists and turns from comedy to Cherokees. I do think the ending was a little lack luster and a little silly and a little unexplained but it couldn't been worse. Overall, the setting is beautifully done and its one of the only things i liked. It is a good western but overall i would only recommend this to someone who likes these kind of movies.
