White's well-meant version is undoubtedly incomplete, and gilded with a certain amount of Hollywood silliness. But if it doesn't exactly feel revelatory or deeply explored as a historical document, it's still an intriguing story, capably told
Jessica Chastain and Michael Greyeyes bring smarts and chemistry to this worthy Western; the resolute Greyeyes and the always-brilliant Chastain chart their respective characters with real chemistry, and White captures the pair's brewing romantic tension
despite the estimable talent on hand both behind and in front of the camera, the story never comes to convincing life and doesn't, in the end, have anywhere particularly surprising or interesting to go
