Set in the 1860's Seraphim falls is a good solid western. Its your standard chase film with Liam Neesom out to get Pierce Brosnan. Good film which is well done.... Full review

This movie was very believable, it had a great message about grudges and passive aggressiveness. The acting was brilliant and each actor played their part in a stellar manner. Pierce Brosnan really steals the show.... Full review

This movie doesn't break any new ground, but because I enjoy westerns I found the first 3/4 of this movie to be decent. But I have to question the writers/director on what was accomplished by having the movie continue after the... Full review

I am not sure how two Irish actors wound up portraying Civil War soldiers bent on revenge, but Brosnan and Neeson both breathe great realism into their old west characters. Much like Eastwood's great westerns, Seraphim Falls is tough, big and... Full review

I have read some of the other reviews before I bought this movie and was shocked that people would say the ending wasn't great! There is such a great message in this movie, not to mention the relentless story of revenge!... Full review

The movie started off bad and ended even worse. Why was Anjelica Huston there in the middle of the desert? Just to add her name to the list of stars in the movie? Ending made very little sense. I expected more... Full review

It's a refreshingly basic story from writer/director David Von Ancken, eschewing dialogue in favour of visceral action.....how Carver figures into it are kept under wraps for the best part of the story..... ... Full Review

John Toll's cinematography is beautiful, as always....A quiet, bitter chase film....the best thing about the film....Despite being explicitly set in the aftermath of the war between North and South, the film is oddly agnostic when it comes to context --....no better results from this week's Seraphim Falls , a film.... ...

En Perseguidos por el pasado , cuyo título original es Seraphim Falls y alude al sitio en el que una misma fatalidad marcó la vida de los dos protagonistas, la primera casa recién aparece a los 17 minutos de película (y no es precisamente eso acogedor que llamaríamos un hogar), los personajes principales se cruzan con una caravana de misioneros -creyentes pero agresivos, quizás honestos pero no ingenuos- cuando han transcurrido ya 38 minutos de persecución solitaria, a los 42 se relacionan fugazmente con lo ...
