Synopsis

The Civil War has ended, but Colonel Morsman Carver is on one final mission – to kill Gideon, no matter what it takes. Launched by a gunshot and propelled by rage, the relentless pursuit takes the two men through frigid snow-capped mountains and arid deserts, far from the comforts and codes of civilisation, into the bloodiest recesses of their own souls.

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
starblazer64 I really enjoyed watching Seraphim Falls. If you enjoyed First Blood starring Sylvester Stallone and are a fan of cowboy type films, this movie might be one you'll love! Great plot, action, direction and cinemotography made this a fine film. I feel it's nit given the attention it deserves!
LeonLouisRicci Allegorical Western, its Message Siding with a Greuling Chase among the Earth's rugged Natural Environment from the Top to the Bottom, or as the Film would more than Metaphorically Display, from Heaven to Hell, with the "Fallen Angels".The First Two Acts are Typical of Old Time in the Genre, Featuring Closed Mouth Types Speaking in Short Cynical Sentences. Showing the kind of Men who Could Survive on God's Not So Green Earth. There's the Snow and the Desert, Two Extremities on Terra-Ferma that are Not Inhabitable for the Weak and the Unprepared.Pierce Brosnan and Liam Neeson are the Fallen One's and the Film is Ambiguous about that for quite a While, but in the End there are No Easy Answers, No Saints, just Sinners. As the Film Fades Out it is as Simple as "Vengeance is Mine Sayeth the Lord".Reluctantly Admitting the Gorgeous Cinematography and Fine Acting, some have taken Quite an Offense that the Mystical Intruding is too Heavy Handed, going Against the Classic Western Tradition.The Modern and Postmodern Western has Evolved with the Likes of Mann, Boetticher, Leone, and Peckinpah. If You Prefer John Wayne, John Ford, Howard Hawks and the like, that's Fine. But, the Influences here are the aforementioned.
ruimsl The name of the movie only starts to make sense past mid-point of the movie. Here we can see two men battling in a quest for revenge (a little misplaced, or not ?!?), after the end of the American Civil War.An allegory between heaven and hell – the beginning and the end of the movie, com be seen in the sets, portrayed by high winterly mountains and a scorching desert where the action unravels.In between, the hunter is losing its men, either by the hand or the hunted, or by greed - the perspective of easer money that the quest at hand. The last of the sidekicks, in a very good performance by Michael Wincott, get taken out by the ugly face the revenge at a hands grasp.We can see two great actors – Pierce Brosnan and Liam Neeson, portraying two soldiers, hardened by war and hardship, making their way into an ending which turns out to be a little weak, where we can see that the men aren't so hardened. Cowboys and soldiers also have good and just hearts.A final note to Angelica Houston playing a saleswoman, in the middle of the desert (??!!) trading with both men the means to make the revenge possible with justice (equal rights). Is she a representation for the devil itself? I think so ..., in a little twisted and just way.It's a very good movie with great landscapes and very worthwhile example of the long lost western.
markcotterman94 Why did this movie do less than a half mill? Was the marketing off, wrong film - wrong time? I caught it on TV flicking through the channels and really enjoyed it. Great acting by two of my favorites, amazing scenery, and story...all well done. More than just a western. it's an adventure movie that looks like a western, wrapped up in a revenge plot. Pierce and Liam are in fine shape as grizzled, weather worn, and as it turns out emotionally tired adversaries. It's the kind of role I expect ("action") from them, but this one has a twist. And all of the supporting actors and characters are equally as good. I do have to agree with some reviewers that the vision scenes of the philosopher and traveling saleswoman seem totally out of place. Anyone who enjoys a different kind of movie, one you didn't expect, and doesn't mind a long haul (it goes on for quite a while) will enjoy this movie.
