Acting is ok but the story is not that new. In fact the story could be worse. But this low budget film is watchable and has it's good points (even though some dimwit did leave out plucking the chicken). Moving on... the characters are believable and and the inclusion of Native Americans is refreshing.

I liked it but certainly a bit slow. There wasn't enough of the backstory and not a movie for everyone. I gave it a 7 rating, but I think it could have been better.

I saw Montana Story, starring Haley Lu Richardson-Split, The Bronze; Owen Teague-The Stand_tv, the new It movies_2017 & 2019 and Gilbert Owuor-Goliath_tv, The Young and the Restless_tv.

This is a story about a brother and sister-in their 20's-that come home to see their father after he has suffered a stroke and is on life support. Owen and Haley are the brother & sister that left their Montana home about 7 years earlier under bad terms with the father-he was abusive to both of them but more so to Haley. Gilbert is the hospice nurse taking care of the father on the farm that is deep in debt. Lots of mixed feelings between just about everybody, except for poor old Gilbert, who is caught in the middle. Haley is mad at her father for what he did to her and at Owen, for what he didn't do-mainly, stopping the abuse. Owen is mad at his father and also at himself-because he didn't do something to stop his father from hurting Haley. And, with their father dying, they both are bouncing back and forth between being angry and glad. It's just an emotional roller coaster.

It's rated R for language and has a running time of 1 hour & 54 minutes.

It's not one that I would buy on DVD or even rent. If you are interested in seeing it, I would wait until it comes to tv.
