Directed by Scott Cooper, Hostiles follows a stellar cast down a turbulent, powerful and decisively impressive western. The Blu-ray/DVD is now available with behind-the-scenes interviews and featurettes.
The movie is set in 1892 and focuses on a legendary Army captain, played by Christian Bale, who is ordered to escort a dying Cheyenne war chief, played by Wes Studi, back to his tribe and family. The captain unwillingly agrees to his assignment.
The journey is distressing and death-defying as they trailer from Fort Berringer to the grasslands of Montana. They chance upon a young widow, played by Rosamund Pike. Her family was brutally murdered on the plains.
She joins the journey and they all work together to overcome the challenging landscape, hostile Comanche, and ruthless frontiersmen they run into along the way.
Watching the trailers and clips, the movie is pure grit and action.
