Five years after the Civil War, freedwoman and former Buffalo Soldier Moses "Mo" Washington travels west to lay claim on a gold mine- the summation of years of toil for Mo and her community. It is a mean, dangerous world for an unaccompanied Black woman in 1870 America and so Mo travels into the deep frontier disguised as a man. After her stagecoach is ambushed by a group of murderous thieves, Mo is forced to hold legendary outlaw Tommy Walsh captive while the remaining surviving passengers seek out help. What ensues is a battle of wills, blurring the line between captor and captive, as they both try to survive the harsh western landscape.

This movie is more John Ford and Sergio Leone in that the characters talk too much. If it had been a little more Sergio and a little less John, it would've been an even better movie.

Wright and Bell have a powerful dynamic, with her playing Mo as quietly ferocious and him playing Tommy as brashly theatrical.

5/5

Mandler’s brilliant “Surrounded” is everything dedicated fans of Westerns could possibly want. It is a throwback in every sense of the word and could have been produced at any point in the last 70 or so years by the likes of Ford, Hawks, or Eastwood.

Mandler shines the spotlight on the thorny relationship that develops between Mo and Tommy. Wright and Bell both deliver outstanding performances in their roles, though the script shortchanges both characters in terms of their development.

4/5

Talky but thoughtful and beautifully composed, this post-Civil War-era Western addresses complex nuances of race, gender, discrimination.
