IMDB

Elvis plays Pacer, a half white, half Native American (or injun, as they say in this movie repeatedly). Pacer's father and mother are murdered and he's forced to choose sides. He chooses the Native American side and his brother, Clint, chooses the white side.
Pretty good western that is loaded with racism. It's funny to see Elvis play half Native American. His range is limited to playing Elvis, but it works. Elvis is cool and this movie is pretty good.

7/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
