Poe S Oct 19, 2017 In the turbulent years of early colonial American times, the tract of land that would be known as the United States of America in a distant future was inhabited with Native Americans and exotic creatures previously unknown to the Europeans. As the colonists start spreading death and chaos throughout the west coast, one once-normal-man, having survived a botched execution, must mount on his majestic Buffalo and work to purge the wilderness of the filth that has so bravely tainted it. Fabian and Robinson delivers yet another masterpiece of contemporary art with eloquently weaved metaphors and a bleak, yet with scattered comedic relief, portrayal of the early colonial times, supported by the stunning, underappreciated skills of the lead actors and actresses. Solid 5/5 See more
Leia S Oct 19, 2017 It is really good. I especially liked the song!:)
Oct 19, 2017 A masterpiece. I liked the actors, the plot, and the music. As widely known, a buffalo is one of the animals that represent America. Therefore, I think that this movie contributed to American Pride as well. See more
Hagrid M Oct 19, 2017 Buffalo Rider 2017 best movie ever
Poe L Oct 19, 2017 This movie gives a perfect grasp of the quintessence of buffalo riding. Never seen a movie that grabs the audience into the storyline this much. This is the culture that I would like to see in movies, depicted through the actions of the delicately directed figure riding the beautiful buffalo, undoubtedly more than any stupid superhero movies that people today roar about.

Poe S Oct 19, 2017 If Steven Seagal were to combine forces with Stephen Spielburg, this film would be the love child. A pure masterpiece, only improved by the 4 episode mini-series follow-up. How anyone can give this under 5 stars is beside me. His handling of the buffalo, the near-drowning experience with an orphan, the cougar punch...all of these are what's missing from modern day Hollywood. This was Citizen Kane, of the buffalo variety.
