PLOT SYNOPSIS<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Following the expansion of the United States into the Southwest, the Apache Indians are forced onto a reservation to live out their lives as lowly corn farmers. While many resign themselves to this fate, several Apache, including Geronimo (WES STUDI), refuse to go quietly. Hoping to quell a major rebellion, General Charles Crook (GENE HACKMAN) dispatches over 5,000 U.S. Cavalry soldiers, led by Lieutenant Charles Gatewood (JASON PATRIC), to hunt down Geronimo and his men.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Twilight Time releases Geronimo<\/em><\/strong> onto Blu-ray where it is presented with a 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio and given a good and sharp looking 1080p high-definition transfer. Considering the time period and story, there isn\u2019t an abundant amount of color as the film leans more toward natural tones.<\/p>\n

The disc includes both a 5.1 and 2.0 DTS-HD Master Audio track and either one is satisfactory, though the former, in spite of having an additional 3 channels, does exactly output incredible depth.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Overall, Geronimo: An American Legend<\/em><\/strong> is a excellently made historical drama from renownedfilmmaker Walter Hill and with a great group of cast headlined by Gene Hackman, Wes Studi (as the title character), Jason Patric and Matt Damon in one of his early roles, this is a great film that tells probably a little known story. The Blu-ray release has good video and audio transfers but sadly is lackluster with the features.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
