Review of Where the Rivers Flow North (1993) by Lee M — 02 Jul 2011
The bad guys want to build a dam, the lead won't move. It's a dull plot, set in a time and place that fails to catch the imagination.
But where the film really fails is in how dark and bleak it feels. There is no humour at all and little to connect with. The audience is forced to watch a gruelling, grotty struggle with no reward.
It feels like being dunked in the freezing, churning, never ceasing river for a hundred minutes.
