A biopic about a man called Percy who accomplished nothing of mention apart from abandoning his wife at every opportunity.

Very well paced and entertaining movie. There is a lot going on and James Gray never focuses one one thing for too long. I was never bored during the long run time of this movie. Some beautiful shots in the jungle. Charlie Hunnam is great in this, really does a good job showing a man who keeps chasing after his dreams. Robert Patterson was surprisingly good too, I still can't help but think of twilight whenever I see his name. Tom Holland was decent in the part of the movie he was in. [spoiler]Only nitpick with this movie is that it has a little unsatisfactory ending but that is what happened in real life. Nobody knows what happened to Percy. [/spoiler]

A very boring movie and a total waste of time, avoid at all costs. 1/10

A very classy film. The music often reminded me of old Hollywood classics. Based on real life events, the story of Percy Fawcett is told very straight forward in this film and the end leaves you wondering if he ever found the lost city or not. But the movie was really beautifully shot and I thought Sienna Miller's performance was especially brilliant.

I’m not exactly sure how I would’ve felt about this movie if it wasn’t led by Charlie Hunnam, but because of that magnificent man and his consistent solid and beautiful performance (which carried the movie, imho) I have enjoyed every minute of it, and will probably watch it again. My eyes were glued to the screen the entire time and I was absolutely sucked into that world and his obsession with the lost city. This man continues to surprise me. In the best ways possible.

> In 1925, Percy Fawcett ventured into the Amazon in search of a myth. What he discovered became legendary.

Now, if the movie had focused on that it might have been interesting. Instead we race through the years of his life and stopping every ones in a while for 15 minutes or so. Because of that, the whole thing feels stiched together loosely without ever taking time to explore any event further. We just witness it and jump forward a couple of years. This is not what I expected and so despite the fact it is technically a good movie, I was bored and in the end dissapointed (I apologies for not knowing Fawcetts story I expected he would find the city in the movie). And even as a biopic it didn´t connect with me in a way that I now want to know more about the man.
And now that I think about that quote I used at the beginning: what did he discover, really ?

Movie, get your s**t together, even you don't know what you're about. A tale of man vs nature? An outcast trying to restore his status in a society only to learn that society isn't worth it? The White Man befriending the Natives against the preconceived ideals of his world? Or maybe for a few minutes tries to be a warlike film showing us some of the horrors of the Great War?

In any case, more than two hours of my life that I won't get back.

I knew absolutely nothing about this movie going in. This wasn't a bad movie, just disappointing as I was expecting more adventure discovering a lost civilization. It is more a movie about the life of a man trying to make a name for himself and nothing of the Indiana Jones style adventure I was hoping it would be. [spoiler]Was kind of sad that he had a wife and children with whom he never spent any time. In the end, nothing was accomplished; the Lost City of Z never verified.[/spoiler]

A great movie,Charlie Hunnam and Robert Pattinson are amazing actor's...I must say Charlie wife is really annoying,I'm sorry but back in the time it was set in,she would not be questioning about woman's rights,this is stupid PC coming through into movies now...

The Manuscript 512 wasn't found by Nina, it was found by Percy. This feminism sham is outrageous.
