During this pandemic, there were many films that were postponed. Very bad, even though there have been many good films this year. But, to get rid of boredom, I tried searching for some films that I have not watched, there are old films, there are also films that were released between 2015-2018. I found this film, let's look at my review.
The Lost City of Z (2016)
Just like my previous review, this film also tells a true story that might be rarely known by the public. But in my opinion, the 2017 film The Lost City of Z by Amazon Studio is worth watching.
The story begins at the beginning of the 20th century, when an explorer, Percy Fawcett (Charlie Hunnam), roams into the Amazon jungle in search of a legendary and much-talked-about golden city. At first, he was just someone who worked to make maps, but, his belief in a lost city had made him think seriously about exploring the forest deeper.
This film managed to appear different compared to other standard adventure films. This film emphasizes the elements of cultural background and way of thinking of the people at that time.
For those of you who have watched James Gray's work before, The Immigrant, you must feel that the film is moving slowly. Really! You will feel the same rhythm in this film. But, wait a minute! for those of you who want to endure to the end, believe me, you will be rewarded with an extraordinary spectacle of adventure to enrich your mind.
Not all Have to be a Happy Ending
Like my previous review, true stories sometimes don't give a happy ending impression, but because this is a film about science, you will feel a real sensation. You will be introduced to the cannibal tribe which (formerly) often told the bars, turns out to have another story when the tribes inland keep the earth and forests. Cannibals are just a tradition of eating the flesh of warriors who have died in battle, not all humans.
"To dream to seek the unknown. To look for what is beautiful is its own reward. A man's reach should exceed his grasp, or what's a heaven for?"

I will not explain in detail, because it will leak the story line and you will not want to watch it.
Oh ya! I forgot, he had a boy who was just as smart, he finally traveled together. The love of his wife Nina Fawcett (Sienna Miller) also adds a harmonious and interesting family spice to follow.
Robert Pattinson (commonly known as Edward Cullen, the main protagonist in the teen romance movie Twilight) has also managed to display a different figure from the cliché appearances in some of his previous films. Happy Watching!
