Oscars nominated screenwriter Taylor Sheridan makes his directorial debut with the final film in his trilogy of screenplays on the American frontier (including Sicario and Hell or High Water). Academy Award® nominee Jeremy Renner is Cory Lambert, a local game tracker who stumbles upon the body of a murdered teenage girl, frozen in the desolate wilderness of the Wind River Indian Reservation. Still trying to come to terms with the death of his own teenage daughter, Cory is forced - most brutally - to confront his own past. When rookie FBI agent Jane Banner (Elizabeth Olsen) is assigned to the case, she enlists Cory's help to navigate the unfamiliar terrain and unforgiving conditions, as the two venture deep into a world ravaged by violence and the elements. Wind River is a stark look at life on the edge of an imposing wilderness, where the rule of law is eclipsed by the laws of nature.

To me it was like this move was written by a 15 year old girl. Some over the top emotionalism (EO's character), wierd dialogue, unlikely escalations in violence, bitter, angry, snarky people everywhere, an ugly revenge scenario and other annoying things like the words on screen at the end that seemed out of place. To be honest if you can suspend disbelief and overlook some flaws you'll enjoy this film, for me I found these things jarring and annoying.

For someone who lives in a hot dry climate I found this story of struggle, death and ultimately survival in a terrifyingly cold climate really gripping. The acting is nicely understated and realistic. Suspense is well used and I was glued to the screen. If I was stuck in the wilds I would want to be with this guy!

Beautiful scenery. A true story (unfortunately, given what happened). A little slow in parts. Hard to hear some dialogue at times, was more like mumbling. An ok movie.
