I have no basis to question the validity of these comments, but for me it doesn’t detract from the film’s greatness. Beginning with the choices made in casting. Mr. Wes Studi as Magua was tremendous.

The movie is in the spirit of the book by James Fenimore Cooper, who was painstakingly accurate in his descriptions with a great eye for details. Finally a movie that truly relates to its source.
Man I wish there was more French and Indian wars films since since they play especially the final one of a plays a major role in future events (IE the American revolution).
@@genx7006I’m amazed how important the 7 years war was and glossed over considering it was trully the First World War based on its scale and how it influenced many contries leading up to the American Revolution.
Duncan's already a combat veteran, and his guard is already raised from Magua's increasing insolence, to just how Magua starts acting when they find themselves in prime ambush ground, Duncan reacts fast, but its still the wrong reaction.
Similiar to the Tutaborg forest incident nearly 2000 years before when the Roman legions were tricked into walking practically single file through the German forests and ambushed by Germanic tribes. In open terrain the Romans were invisible, but they weren't use to the forests and gorilla warfare. The Germanic tribes wipped out 3 powerful elite legions
During the entire black powder/musket period of warfare, 1400s to mid 1800s, the British sadly never really trained their troops in non conventional tactics or learned how to deal with ambushes in rough terrain. It led to the majority of their losses during the Revolution, the French and Indian War, the Napoleonic Wars, the Crimean War and the Berber Wars. They were deadly in an open field or proper battleground, but they simply never could handle ambush by skirmishers, as this shows.
I'm afraid that this just isn't true. They did train to skirmish. They also adapted rapidly the the environment in which they fought, with great success, consistently. Aside from Monogahela, most of the battle the British lost in the French-Indian war were straight-up fights (Carrilon, Sainte-Foy) or running battles between Rangers/Light infantry and Irregular French troops and their allies (Battle on Snowshoes). If you look up the uniform of a British regular on campaign in this conflict, it is cut back, and adapts lots of lessons from native allies. One of the reasons why the British army WAS so successful was its ability to adapt. The terrain in the American War of Independence wasn't much different from what is seen in Europe, in the main.. the East coast was hardly the Ohio valley. Much praise is heaped on the militias of the USA, but in reality it was a pretty conventional war, and was resolved in a conventional manner. Not sure where you're getting your information about British losses in the Napoleonic Wars from, but the French were hardly masters of skirmishing that outmaneuvered Redcoats.. The British were certainly not out-skirmished or ambushed in the Crimean War. In fact, the closest thing to an ambush is probably Inkermann, when they were surprised in Fog (and the British won). I'm not sure what Berber wars you're referring to. British colonial history does have instances of British forces being ambushed, particularly in Afghanistan and the Boer Wars. But the idea that the British army was incapable of skirmishing is nonsense I'm afraid. Be careful not to make assumptions based on a) movie clips, or b) pop history.

They had really clean clothes and washing machines back in the 1700s..their clothes are cleaner then modern peoples. Their uniforms looks brand new..how did they keep so clean???
The British Army of 1745-54 neglected to add hand-to-hand combatives for their soldiers. Some Jujutsu training might have helped. Someone else mentioned this. The Brits should have fixed bayonets. The redcoats were well-trained in using their bayonets like pikes.
I was hoping this was the ambush at the end of the movie. The MASSIVE one. I also hear that isnt how it actually happened. Infact I do not really know this story at all outside the movie. Can we get a history lesson video about it? Also how is Magua not instantly dead attacking an entire column of soldiers solo point blank. I can believe he gets the first two, but to survive the next 10 seconds..no way!
The movie is based on the the book of the same title penned by American writer James Fenimore Cooper in 1826. It is the 2nd book in his Leatherstocking Tales pentalogy. Set within The Seven Years' War (1756-1763) a global battle between (amongst many European nations) England and France fought across the NA continent. The military leaders, (attack on Fort William Henry are historically based. Lieutenant Colonel George Monro 🇬🇧 garrison commander of Fort William Henry, located on Lake George in the Province of New York. Major General Louis-Joseph de Montcalm 🇫🇷 and 7,000 troops besieged the fort beginning 2 August 1757. Using anglophone tribal names…There is academic debate as to First Nations Peoples or indigenous people in the Americas who were called the 'Mohicans. ' Many scholars believe Cooper confused or combined the 'Mohegans' and the 'Mahicans' into the 'Mohicans (all part of the Algonquin Nations) Tho driven off their land in what would be New Albany NY, through the tragedy under called the federal Indian Removal Act, there is a banded Tribe of ~2000 Muhhekunneuw (which would most closely identify) to mohican in Wisconsin. The novel is categorized as a ‘romantic historic novel’ addressing the conflict of settlers, westward expansion, loss of indigenous lands, and the tapestry of relationships created and cultivated within this region. As the title implies by end of this novel there is only one soul survivor of the mohican people.

Number of problems with this scene. The 60th Royal Americans were formed specifically to fight French and Indians after Braddock’s defeat, they knew you fix bayonets and pair up behind trees by 1758 in a situation like this. Their knapsacks are a much later design, they would have goatskin snap sacks not backpacks in the 1750s. Finally the buttons on their gaitors are metal, in the french and Indian war these were made of horn.
@@ReelHistory They are not great, and they are not problematic. No one has claimed that they are not correct, and they reflect a lot of knowledge about the period. But they are unimportant in relation to the development of the film and its overall impression of authenticity.
Lots of comments about how the British did much better than this scene in the war. This is partly correct but only when they faced French colonial forces, militia & French regulars or in static defense positions like camps /forts where they were able to use their artillery and defenses to provide cover to reload after volley fire. Against irregular troops & Indians they actually did very poorly for the first few years because the troops in the Americas weren’t their best professional soldiers but raw recruits/ minor colonial regiments and militia as their main army was fighting the French in Europe at the beginning. The British were also not using their Indian allies in the beginning beyond a few guides, trappers, and scouts because they didn’t believe they were effective fighting forces. It was the many losses to French Indian surprise attacks that changed their mind later in the war. The other factor is even nearly 100 years later even USA troops armed with muskets didn’t fare too well Against Indian forces ambush style attacks because the Indians quickly learned to surprise the enemy provoke them into firing at them while they took cover & then attack while they reloaded. It wasn’t until cartridge rounds fast reload /repeating rifles came along that the Indian warriors began to be at a disadvantage. Indian forces were incredibly skilled hand to hand melee combat fighters since they were trained almost as soon as they could talk to use melee weapons which British & even French forces had moved away from by this time in favor of volley and artillery tactics. As long as they were able to get up close in large enough numbers, once the Indian troops made contact with British & French lines they were extremely effective every time. The muskets with bayonets were only effective at repelling charges and charging other lines but in close hand to hand combat its length size became a big hindering faction. This scene demonstrates all this perfectly. Magua attacks killing 2 troops throwing the British off balance and reacting using their rigid formations and then they’re tricked into 2/3 of their line firing and immediately they Indians swarm them up close. The only British troop who fares well is Duncan a officer with a small pistol / club who only shoots when the enemy is close & as a officer / aristocrat trained extensively in the use of a sword a melee weapon for hand to hand combat
very intense to see that because of the conflict of European empires within America, indian tribes turned against each other for mercenary profit and gain. when indian fought Indian, tragically; and thus continued to the days of Custer's last stand and Wounded Knee.
The battles in this film would've gone much differently if they had bayonets fixed, instead they are swinging their muskets like baseball bats which doesn't get them very far
Frustrating to see the British act and fight so stupidly, but it wasnt far from the truth. In the french-indian war and some other engagements they were totally crushed by the Indians (and the French). Some unfathomable defeats like the Braddock expedition. Against a smaller number of enemy. Not sure how and why they couldnt adapt their tactics. They certainly fought against *savage* enemies before, indigenous people in India or Africa or whatever. War is not a game of gentlemen even though it is shown that way. No mercy.
These battles are similar to the conflicts between Celtic tribes of British and roman legions also the roman legions and Germanic tribes in black forest interesting 🤔// hope no white British person or german takes offence to the comparison but thier ancestors fought in a similar way with a fierce tribal spirit against Roman armies who like the British were well organized trained as military disciplined units
This was an entertaining movie, but had absolutely no historical validity to British military tactics. Britain didn't colonize 1/3 of the planet by not adapting to the potential adversaries along the way, most of whom were then absorbed into the British military. Fighting in line served a purpose given the weapons of the time, but special forces troops were employed in the American colonies, notably Rangers, which was a British innovation and light infantry, which became elite units of every regiment from that time onwards. As to close quarters combat, British infantry were 21 year enlistment regulars, hard as nails and drilled and skilled with the bayonet, more than a match for lightly armed natives.
"Magua said 'understand English very well'"

We'd be happy to hear any of your input before we do a review!
Idaho, Iowa, Ohio, Oklahoma, Utah; I really loves this Native names on the States of USA.
I always like the line "My compliments sir, take her and get out "
They’re just called Indians. Quit making up terms the natives didn’t even use
I believe the correct term would be "Indian history".
Daniel day Lewis spent 2 months in the wilderness just to feel like a frontier man.its a brutal master piece. Forever in my top 5 movies of all time.
I've been obsessed with this movie since 1994. I was 11. I've seen it probably over 100 times. Love it so much 🔥 ❤
Same.
On bruh
Wes Sudi had such a good role fabulous actor.
Michael Mann is actually a great director. This movie, HEAT, ALI, Collateral, The Insider, Hancock, Manhunter, Thief, etc. What a resume!
He didn’t direct Hancock. That was Peter Berg. I believe he was his protege.
@230mps you are correct. Mann was one of the producers. Thank you.

It was more an update of the 1936 film adaptation though.
Rewatched this epic a few days ago. Can't wait for Reel History to analyse it!
I like the way how they are fully dressed even when walking through the woods
Magua is not the villain in the film, he just avenges the death of his family
Yea but as the old chief warned Magua, the hatred has turned his heart black and Magua has dreams of empire.
I am still mad that Wes Studi did not receive an Oscar for this performance.
He is a villain. But one of the best villains he is the hero of his own story.
I absolutely agree....Magua was avenging the death of his family..
hes def a villain, hes just using his family as an excuse to kill innocent people
Man I wish there was more French and Indian wars films since since they play especially the final one of a plays a major role in future events (IE the American revolution).
