I don't like this movie very much. I think it's interesting because, in some way, it shows the problems and battles occurred in the New World (i.e. U.S.) between those who settled there and those who were living there before, that is the Indians. However, I usually find this kind of movies boring. Yet, in my opinion it's interesting for those who want to expand their knowledge about the history of America, or for those who have to study this history, as in my case.
Beyond the quarrels between the Indians and the colonizers, there are two love stories. The successful one is between the protagonist Nathaniel Poe (Daniel Day-Lewis), who is a middle-Indiand adopted by the tribe of the Mohicans, and the oldest daughter, Cora Munro (Madeleine Stowe) of a British important man. It is the successful one because at the end they are availabe to love each other. The sencond couple is composed by Uncas (Eric Schweig) and Alice Munro (Jodhi May). But, they don't have as luck as the others.

Several battles take place in the movie and finally just one mohican keeps alive: the last of the mohicans.
