Dances with Wolves (Special Extended Edition) Customer Reviews (19 - 21 of 64 Reviews)

Exquisite Masterpiece!
This film is very special to me, it touches on everything that is truly important in my life: beautiful love and friendship not just between people but also between people and animals, loyalty & dedication, harmony and victory. The cinematography is breathtaking, the music score is lovely and the cast is absolutely superb, including Cisco and Two Socks. I take my hat off for Kevin Costner's genius as director and actor. The film is difficult one to make, considering the fact that John Dunbar spends a lot of time on his own with no one to talk to, and yet it is very entertaining. The battles are crafted tastefully, the love scenes are stylish with no unnecessary details and the humour is just the right dose.
Dances With Wolves is an exquisite masterpiece and the two-disc extended edition is the special treat the film deserves. The transfer is high quality and it comes with stylish, cleverly designed keep case. The personal touch from Kevin Costner and Jim Wilson makes it even more special for every true fan of the movie. Take your time to indulge in this wonderful experience! I had an amazing weekend viewing the video. Had the feeling that Kevin and Jim were in my screening room when their commentary were on and I learned a lot about these remarkable men and what they have to go through to make it happen. I will treasure my old disc and will often go back to it, but when I need a dose of pure inspiration and motivation, I will play the extended version, listening to the last few words that Kevin says in his commentary. Absolutely fascinating!

Very, very good
Kevin Costner directed and starred in this high-budget, much-hyped, and much-awarded epic about a soldier who ends up manning a frontier fort alone, and builds a relationship with the Lakota Sioux. The cinematography is great, the score is very good, and the film seems very authentic to the frontier setting. While it gets a bit slow, at times, the story is also fairly complex, and the acting was up to it. I know that many people see this as a great movie, and give it five stars, but I hesitate because of two reasons, one of which might result in a barrage of rotten tomatoes headed my way:

1) I really enjoyed watching this film, but then felt no urge to buy it, or even to watch it a second time, when it was televised.

2) I actually find the strange and somewhat over-long "Waterworld" to be more interesting, entertaining, and watchable, probably because of Dennis Hopper's maniacal glee.

One of the best and more of it!
This movie I use in my history class every year. It portrays the Buffalo hunt to perfection, it is heart warming, sad, happy and full of wonderful values and truth.
