1492: Conquest of Paradise

Thought the movie was very poorly made. The costumes,
architecture and cross-cultural connections were very
accurate however.

This movie was very badly made and the fact that it was
rated only PG-13 disappoints me...there is profanity,
nudity, and VERY muuch violence

Thought the movie was wonderful. It is long and deep, but
if you can keep up with the dialoge and story, it is
wonderful. The score done by Vangelis is nothing short of
amazing.

While I think that the movie itself is long and drawn-out.
I also believe that it is a wonderful film. I don't think
that the profanity is that widespread in the movie and the
violence is a necessary part of telling the story. The
nudity is what is called in educational circles "National
Geographic"- type nudity. There is almost no sexual
overtones about this in the film.

Great movie!!!

1492 is the best movie i ve ever seen in my life!!!!I don't
know why some people reckon it is full of nudity or
something like these!I think Ridley just wanted to tell the
truth about Columbus and the director had made it!And, let
me tell you that the film's music is composed by Vangelis
who i adore!Really!!!!
