HORIZON: AN AMERICAN SAGA Ending Explained 

I thought it was great! It was 4 stories on one! I can’t wait for part 2

We basically got the trailer for the next one at the end

It came out this past Friday and is #2 in the box office. So much for doing bad. I thought it was very good and I am looking forward to chapter 2.

A lot of haters on this movie. I personally thought this was the best Western movie I've ever seen! A magnificent work of Kevin Costner. Masterclass workmanship here. Go see this movie!

I loved chapter 1 I can't wait for the other 3 I can't wait. Thanks Kevin Costner.

It's a great movie. Costner knows how to make a movie.

Didn’t love it to be honest. Amazing cinematography and world building but the character development was meh.

Great movie!

I was a little hesitant about the run time in case it was slow. Certainly didnt feel like 3 hours. Really enjoyed it.

I’ll be at the box office for chapter 2. Can’t wait until I can buy it. I loved it thought it was very true to the time.

It was like the Pulp Fiction of Westerns. Pretty confusing to follow at times. I love it though. Great casting. They even aged Costner down.

People keep saying they don’t know the plot it’s literally the entirety of knowing the progression of different perspectives of living in the last great frontier. I thought it was amazing capturing so many different struggles, it’s not biased to good or bad hero or not.

I guess this movie just wasn’t for me. It seemed so scattered

How can anyone hate this movie?

I loved it, can’t wait for the next one, great movie

I’m looking forward to watch the last 3 parts of the same movie.

Ya no. Terrible ending. Same ol story. Nothing new.

Love this movie can't wait to see them all

Totally agree with you. I don’t understand why there are bad reviews.

I am a fan of Costner and I wanted to judge for myself after a lot of hate thrown at this film. I know that this is a setup for a larger story but I thought it was boring. The dialogue was not well written or engaging at all. The acting was not great either. It would have been better as a limited series, broken up into 1 hour episodes. I'm open minded about the rest of the series. Most likely I would not watch this again. If this is Costner's magnum opus, I'm not impressed. Taylor Sheridan does it way better with less money and I'm sure it's crushing Costner's massive ego. There is really no proper end to the film. Without the big "trailer"for the future episodes it would have really fallen flat. The preview at the end felt very odd, like a desperate attempt to make an otherwise uninteresting film more exciting. Unfortunately I didn't really care much about anyone in the film.

I hope they keep the writing as amazing as it has been so far.

I loved it, but I'm glad you did this, because I couldn't figure out what the end was. They said that the wagon train was on the Santa Fe Trail, but the Corrigans and Horizon are in Montana and Wyoming. Ft Bridger was on the Oregon Trail not the Santa Fe. The only place they are close is at the start, the Oregon Trail began in Independence Ks. and the Santa Fe in Franklin Ks.

Pro-tu-ga-nist? Kind of a dead giveaway that this is a computer-generated voice at work. Okay, ya wanna go that route, fine, but damn, at least listen to it and ask yourself; do I really want that put out there that way? A pet-peeve of mine since I'm not a fan of fake voices. If it's not a fake voice, it's pronounced pro-tag-a-nist. Hooked on phonics 101. Just sayin.

should have been a TV show.

Proto- ganist? This AI???

Why the lady shot the guy at the outset is just one of several dangling participles contained in the film. I liked the cinematography, a lot of the acting, but the script is disjointed as hell and busier than Godfather III as far as character arcs go, the end result being you can't really find any. And I figured out that the town, Horizon, is the central theme easy enough, it is the name of the movie after-all, but why bury the lead? Why not start out right up front with a scene explaining this is the alpha-and-omega around which the characters converge? A simple bit where some guy buys the land and lays out the plan would have been better than a guy and his son surveying the land, then being buried after they are killed by Indians I suppose by a guy who shows up, well just because I guess. Oh yeah, and nobody called Indians indigenous or aboriginal in the 1860s, ever. Just sayin. I like westerns, I like epics, and I like Costner's willingness to weave together different stories on a grand scale, something with nuance, an art lost in today's world of Barbie, Super Mario Brothers, and comic book or fantasy movies that tell the same story over and over again, sometimes with guys in tights, sometimes with girls being able to beat the crap out of guys twice their size who aren't wearing tights, so I'll stay with this one for part two. But I hope the next movie has a bit more glue and doesn't meander quite so much. If you're going to weave a story, use thread, not spaghetti. And yes, I got what they did at the end, but it felt forced, wasn't set up, and didn't work for me anyway. But that's just me.

Dances with wolves is one of my favourite movies. The story, the music epic, humour, just awesome. Hostiles is also a fantastic one is the most recent westerns done for anyone who has not seen it. Waaayy more subtle. I found this one boring, although the attack by the Indians of the settlement at the start wasn’t too bad. Dialogs were awful and editing is weird.

The montage at the end was super annoying.

Not quite an ending b

It's been a long time since I've seen people walk out of a movie with over an hour still to go. The fact that it was over 100° outside and they still left the air conditioned theater tells you how painful it was to sit and watch this movie! I'm a Kevin Costner fan but this movie is a poor imitation of "How the West was won".

good cinematography...but boring and all over the place.

Jesus that commentary is undoubtedly AI. Can’t even pronounce simple words correctly

I wanted this Movie to be great. I love Westerns and I love Costner. However this movie lacks any Core Story. It jumps around so much to different Characters whose stories have no bones to them. Chapter 1 isn’t any good. Its just isn’t.

New Line Cinema canceled the next chapter.

I haven't seen the movie yet. I planned on watching it, but if it's that good. Why would you have to explain it. That's like explaining the words to a song, or a joke

Just finished watching the movie myself. Gotta say, it was an amazing film.

I get the vibe that it's liberals giving poor reviews.. Just like any review site or article..

It was okay. The fragility of life parts are slow and aren't for everyone. Definitely got to finish it.

These critics are the same as Dumb Media..di n t know Nothing 😂

I loved this.... Feels like so long since we got something that wasn't woke

Me personally, i LOVED this Movie

Loved the movie, touched on all different aspects of the settlement of the west. It set up a lot of intricate story lines for the next one

ireallty enjoyed this movie cant wait for the second chapter

Lmao critics keep saying it won't do well but it is. The movie was great. Really great actually. My only complaint about it was that it jumped around too much which caused some confusion at parts. But hopefully the second part will tie it all together much better

Clearly have not seen the film This is a brilliant and amazing putting edge story

pro·tag·o·nist

I don't care to finish it.

protagonists pronunciation????????????????????????/

Really enjoyed it

Fucking movie was awesome.

I loved it!!

There's 3 totally unrelated stories that could have been told separately in stand alone format. Hayes and the prostitute on the run from Sykes family with the kid. Pioneers navigating the Santa Fe trail, Settlers survivors hunting Indians and the Army storyline. Either make a series or separate films with coherent plot. Not 3h for an intro/set up lol expected more than what it delivered

Terrible Mustache and Hat and clean shaven looks weird. Very predictable and poorly directed.

I love Costner and western movies but, boy, this was a huge disappointment for me … it wasn’t know Lonesome Dove .. I can promise you that !!!!

Is there Rap3 in this movie? I need to know before watching!👀

59 seconds in and done - screw this AI video!!!

Typical anti American news media bashing a great movie .....pisses me off folks.

Protagonist (Pro-tag-uh-nist)

This movie is bad ass.
