A

The
Lost City of Z tells the incredible true story of British explorer Percy
Fawcett, who journeys into the Amazon at the dawn of the 20th century and
discovers evidence of a previously unknown, advanced civilization that may have
once inhabited the region. Despite being ridiculed by the scientific
establishment who regard indigenous populations as "savages," the
determined Fawcett - supported by his devoted wife, son and aide de camp
returns time and again to his beloved jungle in an attempt to prove his case,
culminating in his mysterious disappearance in 1925.
In
1905, British Army Major Percy Fawcett is ordered by the Royal Geographical
Society to venture out to a grand adventure at the uncharted and dense Bolivian
jungles to act as a referee and map out the borders with Brazil. Anxiously,
Fawcett, resting his reputation entirely on the venture's success as the son of
a disgraced ex-military man, together with aide-de-camp Henry Costin, will set
off on a dangerous mission to Amazonia, where apart from the starvation, the
infernal heat, the hostile indigenous Indian tribes and the wild animals, they
will also find evidence of advanced, non-white civilizations. Determined to
find the impossible and the ultimate missing piece of the human puzzle, the
Lost City of Z, the ambitious Fawcett will visit the lush Amazonian jungles
again and again in hopes of getting closer to his dream up until his equally
mysterious and ungracious disappearance near 1925.

Ireland,
1905: Percy Fawcett is a young British officer participating in a stag hunt on
an Irish baronial estate for the benefit of the visiting Archduke Franz
Ferdinand of Austria. A skilled horseman and marksman, he brings down the stag
swiftly but is snubbed at the after-hunt party. A year later, Fawcett is sent
to London to meet with officials of the Royal Geographical Society (RGS). The
governments of Bolivia and Brazil are nearly at war over the location of their
mutual boundary and its direct effect on the region's extremely lucrative
rubber trade, and have asked the British government to survey it. Fawcett
agrees to lead the survey party to restore his family's good name. Aboard a
ship to Brazil, Fawcett meets Corporal Henry Costin, who has knowledge of the
Amazon rain-forest. At a large rubber plantation in the jungle owned by the
Portuguese nobleman Baron DE Gondoris, the two meet Corporal Arthur Manley, who
tells them that the British government advises against further exploration.
Fawcett, with several guides and the Amazonian scout Tadjui, completes the
mission. Tadjui tells Fawcett stories about a jungle city covered in gold and
full of people. Fawcett dismisses such stories as insane ravings, but discovers
highly advanced broken pottery and some small stone statues in the jungle that
convince him of the veracity of Tadjui's story..

I
was so hyped for this movie after I read the book. What a let down , this
should have been a throwback to the the classic Hollywood epics of the past.
Instead it's kind of a bore, scenes set in jungle are amazing but there are too
many slow drawn out parts that deal with drama back in civilization.
The
acting by Hunnam is mediocre at best, Sienna Miller gives a great performance
too bad she's not in more of the movie.
Overall
it's not horrible but it's also just average
