For Berenger fans and lovers of good movies
Last of the Dogmen is the story of a trapper, played by Tom Berenger, who discovers a lost tribe of Cheyenne Indians. He is accompanied into the wilderness by a professor of Native American studies, played by Barbara Hershey, who knows the language and customs of the Cheyenne.

Although the premise is almost too fantastic, the characters are very believable. The performances are excellent. With filming in the American northwest, Canada, and Mexico, the scenery is breathtaking. Direction and the sound track support and complement the acting and scenery, making the movie a wonderful experience.

This movie could have become sappy and condescending. Instead it achieved a level of honest entertainment and respect for its subject. It is highly recommended to anyone interested in American history, Native American customs, the wilds of America, or who just plain like a good story. It's an unforgettable movie with no ax to grind, no heavy-handed moral to tell.

Going native
The premise of this movie is just barely remotely plausible. What if there was a tiny lost tribe of Cheyanne Indians still subsisting somewhere way out in the forests of Montana? Given the vast expanse of wooded area + the relatively sparse population that lives in the American northwest, this is almost believable.

The outstanding Tom Berenger delivers another top-notch performance as a tracker whose supsicions arise about the tribe's existence. Barbara Hershey portrays a professor of Native-American studies whom he invokes to help find them. The movie was filmed in the American northwest, Mexico & Canada, and the scenery is exquisite. The direction and soundtrack complement the acting, direction and setting to form a movie that is splendidly well-done across the board.

This film is highly recommended for all Native Americans as well as persons who are interested in American history. It's also recommended for people who just plain want to see a good film. The story of this American Indian tribe suspended in time is likely to be unforgettable.

I loved this movie!
This movie just sort of snuck up on me. I was having a bad day, and it was on TV, so I thought I'd give it a chance. And it turned out to be *just* the thing to pick me up from my doldrums.

A very, VERY sweet movie that is interesting, gripping, has some mystery, romance, and is fine for the whole family. Highly recommended.

Beautiful scenery (I always love beautiful scenery) and two wonderful main characters. Tom Berenger is a grumpy, reclusive and rather shy tracker who get sucked into a very unusual quest -- to find a lost Native American Tribe. He is wonderful in his roll -- he does "grumpy but lovable" better than most other actors I can think of.

Barbara Hershey is fantastic too. Beautiful, brainy, capable, dedicated and a perfect compliment to Berenger's character. I really admired her in this film.

I won't reveal too much of the plot here, but it is a delightful film, and I highly recommend it. Maybe a little on the longish side, but I wouldn't have it any other way. One of my favorite movies to date.
