Sinopsis(1)
Tras participar en una expedición topográfica de la Royal Society a Bolivia, el soldado Percy Fawcett (Charlie Hunnam) queda fascinado por la jungla y accede a participar en una expedición más remota, a pesar de alejarle de su mujer, Nina (Sienna Miller), y sus hijos durante varios años. En la selva amazónica, Percy descubre vestigios de antiguas civilizaciones perdidas, y vuelve a Inglaterra convencido de la existencia de una metrópolis hundida, la misteriosa ciudad de Z. Aunque sus argumentos son ridiculizados por la comunidad científica, Fawcett se embarca en un último viaje a la selva brasileña junto con su hijo Jack (Tom Holland) para demostrar sus teorías.

Por favor, no espere a ningún Indiana Jones. Z, la ciudad perdida no es un entretenimiento de aventuras a gran escala (como la reciente película de Kong), sino un drama casi íntimo sobre un soñador que desea ser un buen esposo y padre, pero más aún, lo impulsa una determinación infinita de descubrir mundos ocultos. Personajes, ambiente, el espíritu de la historia. Sin imágenes digitales molestas, pero tampoco con escenas realmente cautivadoras. Charlie Hunnam actúa bien, Brad Pitt lo maneja aquí como si fuera su sucesor más joven. ¿Pero qué le pasa a Pitt con las Zetas?

Major Fawcett was no Dr. Jones, but it wasn't until the second half that I realized I was watching an unconventional "based on a true story," film because something so old-world, so austere, and yet so nourishing in terms of audience enjoyment would not have been approved by any legitimate producer, even if it cost a mere 30 million. Unfortunately, it didn't make even a third of that, and since Hollywood is ruled by accountants, I'm a little worried about the blue-eyed blond Hunnam, who (in Czech movie theaters) gave two diametrically opposed charismatic performances in the space of a month. It's really too bad because it deserves a stronger audience response if only for the darkened atmosphere, the focused and careful direction, and the very unobtrusive glosses of the period.

Worse version of The Mountains of the Moon meets a worse version of There Will Be Blood. Which does not mean, however, that in any respect it was a boring or perhaps even a bad movie. On the contrary, this is not so adventurous movie about Conrad's destructive obsession with finding a chimera, and exactly the kind of old-school movie that would fit in a movie theater with the clatter of a classic "obsolete" film tape rather than the air-conditioned silence disturbed by popcorn crunch. The only mistake is that, unlike the best movies in this department, this works a little worse if you already know Fawcett's adventures.

A pretty appealing premise and a promising Charlie Hunnam, who made a decent name for himself after King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, but simply boring for my taste. On the other hand, if the whole film was set in the jungle with the cannibals, I'd find it much more entertaining, but once the story starts going home and back, it loses pace and my interest considerably. The production design is decent, visually it’s ok, but the slow pace and extremely long running time hurt the film. 55%

James Gray is a director that doesn't seem to belong in today's world. This is how films were told in the 1950s and 60s, in the era of David Lean's thoughtful big movies, i.e. slowly, deliberately, with an emphasis on character portrayal, with a strong lead (the charismatic Hunnam was an ideal choice). Today's spoiled kids, addicted to Fast and Furious, Marvel and similar crap on steroids, let them go somewhere else, they wouldn’t appreciate this. This favors a strong story, and I like it that way. PS: Charlie Hunnam is a stud. There aren’t many more charismatic actors than him today. I hope that the lack of commercial success of his last two films won’t kill his career with producers.
