The Lost City of Z (2016): Charlie Hunnam as Percy Fawcett


     Written and directed by James Gray, based on the novel by David Grann, The Lost City of Z (2016) is a very well made biopic adventure. The story follows British explorer Percy Fawcett, who was sent to map Bolivia in the early 20th Century and later made attempts to find an ancient lost city he called Z, akin to El Dorado, which he believed to be hidden in the Amazon. He disappeared along with his son on an expedition in 1925 and their fate remains a mystery. The cinematography is superb, adding subdued historic look to the production. Charlie Hunnam is great in the lead role as Lieutenant Colonel Percival Fawcett. The supporting cast is great as well, including Sienna Miller, Tom Holland and Robert Pattinson.
