Envious of the finality of death

Captain Joseph Blocker (Christian Bale) has fought against indians his whole adult life and when, as a goodwill gesture from the president, he's ordered to escort a Cheyanne chief and his family back to indian reservations in Montana, the posse meets a woman whose family has been brutally executed by the Comanches. The journey through dangerous territories has a good chance of becoming a truly violent adventure. This looks like a good old western, one of the best contemporary ones I've seen, they don't come by too often.
