Day 303 - Age of Uprising: The Legend of Michael Kohlhaas (French/German)

"During the 16th-century horse dealer Michael Kohlhaas has just purchased new horses and intends to bring them home. But when he has to pass a border, a part of his property is taken away from him on behest of a greedy local nobleman. When his legal protest proves futile, the situation escalates and Kohlhaas turns into a lawless desperado."
 
A nice drama film that puts the story over the action scenes which I really enjoyed. The character of Michael was so detailed it made everyone else lack depth thus stalled the success of the film. There were a ton of great shots, many beautiful things but it was kind of slow and not in a good way. There was a lot of pain in the movie but if the director had done things differently it could have been a great movie.
 
 
2.8/5
