From
Jan Kounen, the French director of the violent
cult actioner Dobermann, comes this loose adaptation of
Jean "Mobius" Giraud's comic series
Blueberry.
Vincent Cassel stars as
Mike Blueberry, a lawman whose past comes back to haunt him when his town is invaded by the nefarious
Blount (
Michael Madsen), the man responsible for his first love's murder. Led by a German con man by the name of
Prosit (an unrecognizable
Eddie Izzard),
Blount and his crew search for an ancient treasure buried deep within Indian tribal grounds, while
Blueberry and his Indian friend
Runi (
Temuera Morrison) race to keep the land sacred and stop the thieves by any means possible. Featuring
Juliette Lewis and her father,
Geoffrey Lewis, in supporting roles, the film sports a solid American cast that boasts an additional performance by
Colm Meaney and a rare appearance by none other than
Ernest Borgnine.
