Kevin Costner recently took the Cannes Film Festival by storm with his latest project, 'Horizon: An American Saga.' The first chapter of this Western epic has left audiences buzzing with mixed reviews. Costner wears multiple hats in this film, not only starring in it but also directing the quartet of movies that revolve around the settlement of the Wild West.

While some critics praise the film for its sprawling narrative and classic Western vibes, others find it thinly spread, comparing it to a TV series pilot rather than a standalone movie. The slow build of intersecting stories in 'Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1' has drawn attention to its pacing issues, with Costner reportedly not making an appearance on screen until an hour into the film.

With echoes of Costner's past success in Western dramas like 'Dances with Wolves,' 'Horizon: An American Saga' continues to create buzz around its potential as a future series. Costner's dedication to the project is evident, as he aims to turn it into a four-part series, possibly expanding the cinematic universe he has set out to build.

The Cannes premiere of 'Horizon: An American Saga' showcased the first part of this ambitious project, leaving audiences at the edge of their seats. As the film garners attention for its grandeur and ambition, only time will tell if Kevin Costner's latest venture will become a classic in the Western genre.
