To preface: I could write more than a million words about why this is the greatest motion picture ever imagined and created, for this has granted me the beautiful miracle of enough feeling and solace to do so, but I'm going to attempt to be concise. Over the course of my entire life, I will add more.
I could never express or say enough.

"Friends don't quit."
There's always been something remarkably fascinating and profound about the historical/oppressive complexity that embodies our subsequent perceptions of memory vs. history, but then of its context surrounding indigenous lands (and its indigenous inhabitants); more specifically, the exposing of truth (ex: a concealed history of colonialist exploitation & equal atrocities) through the tearing down of the artificial curtain.

"You'll forget in time. You should."
Into the failed dream/world; goodbye mom, I'll see you in the past, whoever you may be, though everyone will know how much I love you. The thing about a dream or reality which horrifically collapses is that you can always construct a new one, within and beyond a new imagination/generation. Ideals and legacies can quickly escape us, it's true, but those derived from an imperfect but sincere absolution of goodness will forever endure in…
"That was so intense, I like can’t even with this place."
Two stars for Jack Black as a woman and for Karen Gillan being hot.
