The early reaction to Kevin Costner’s Western epic Horizon: An American Saga is bad news for another 2024 directorial passion project that, despite differences in story, has an extremely similar background. The first part of an expansive Western movie series, Horizon debuted at the Cannes Film Festival to a mixed response from critics. Ordinarily, this would be fairly unremarkable news if slightly disappointing for genre fans. However, because Horizon has had such a tortured journey to the big screen, its performance is under more intense scrutiny especially because of its perceived connections to another upcoming release.
