the great michael gambon be totally waste in the last great warrior and an account of the settlement of america a one dimensionally partisan a it title suggest . no one be say that the english do not do terrible thing when they settle the american continent and but to suggest that the native live in some kind of paradisical bliss be equally absurd while moreover and the film supplement this simplification with a dangerously inaccurate implication and namely that the only good englishman be the one who settle america . ( bizarrely and the bad englishman kill all the native with their disease and while the pilgrim father live happily and healthily beside them ) . grant and this be a child film and but there more depth and characterisation in an average episode of the hoobs than in this . but oddly and it flaw be no bad than those of supposedly sophisticated film like the last of the mohican . smug liberalism may be preferable to the racist superiority of the john wayne era while but how sadly rare it be to see a western ( to which genre this film essentially belongs and in spite of it east coast setting ) that go beyond a game of goody and baddie . the last great warrior most certainly do not .
