Killers of the Flower Moon

R. 3hr26min. Enormous in runtime, theme, and achievement, Killers of the Flower Moon is  a sobering appraisal of America's relationship with Indigenous peoples  and yet another artistic zenith for Martin Scorsese and his  collaborators.

Based  on David Grann's broadly lauded best-selling book, "Killers of the  Flower Moon" is set in 1920s Oklahoma and depicts the serial murder of  members of the oil-wealthy Osage Nation, a string of brutal crimes that  came to be known as the Reign of Terror.

Peter Travers  ABC News:  Out  of a dark chapter of history about U.S. mistreatment of Native  Americans, Martin Scorsese directs a new movie classic with stupendous  acting from DiCaprio, DeNiro and newcomer Lily Gladstone. It's a great  movie from our greatest filmmaker. See it now!

Brian Tallerico  RogerEbert.com:  "Scorsese  walks that fine line between telling a very specific story of a couple  at the heart of a tragedy and commenting on the larger nature of evil."

David Sims  The Atlantic:   "De  Niro is magnificently unsettling in the film -- it might be the best  work he’s done with Scorsese since Goodfellas -- but the emotional  powerhouses are DiCaprio and Gladstone.

David  Rooney  Hollywood Reporter:  "The three-and-a-half-hour running time is  fully justified in an escalating tragedy that never loosens its grip --  a sordid illustration of historical erasure with echoes in today’s  bitterly divisive political gamesmanship."

David Fear  Rolling Stone:  "[A  picture] brimming with reverence for a culture that survived a horrible  trauma as it is filled with exhilarating flourishes, film history  references, and explorations of the faultline between the sacred and  profane. And yes: It’s a masterpiece.
