One of my all time favorites.
Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
This one of the few and best westerns sense the unforgiven with Eastwood. no green screen just pure beautiful landscape and the characters were right on on their characters. costumes, languages, everything great. the movie has good action and it keeps ya guess'n what's going to happen next. would love to be included in one of their upcoming movies, preferably a western, and that experience would take care of my head real well. i need it too. g friend of Paul, Ed's brother, i got to see this movie and i host watch party's and still cant get enough. yeah a western buff i am. i also notice a lot when it comes to props. this movie was in tune with the times along as their costumes. the directing i'm sure was just as fun for everyone enjoying there work. everyone i had over to watch "SWEETWATER" was ready to go buy a copy of this movie, unfortunately the movie store only had a few copy's for sale but is ordering more. everyone agrees, this is one bad-ass movie that should get a lot of attention. it's got my 10 thumbs up... Logan and Noah; was great talking to ya. Hope to see you guys sometime and do something. Willie.............
Just picture that, burning hundred dollar bills. That sick feeling of something valuable completely wasted. That's the feeling you'll have watching some great actors slog through this truly embarrassing mess of a film. The hack script is a museum of heinous clichés and stereotypes. The actors do their best to salvage the horrendous script with over-the-top, scenery chewing performances, but the result is just ludicrous. Trying to see positives, Ed Harris gives a good effort (he was one of the producers) and our hero husband and wife have some hints of chemistry. But our painfully cartoonish antagonist, Josiah, just ruins the whole film. Again, not for lack of effort from Jason Isaacs, but from the godawful script.To be fair, there are some terrible films that still have some charm or appeal that makes them enjoyable. This not one of them.
The plot: A psychotic preacher goes too far when he begins indiscriminately murdering innocent people. A manic sheriff and gun-toting ex-prostitute team up to stop him and his followers.I liked this film, but it's really quite shallow. If you can enjoy a minimalist, high-concept revenge thriller, this is actually pretty enjoyable. Just don't look for anything more than violent action scenes, despicable villains, and violent anti-heroes who would make Clint Eastwood proud.As I expected, Ed Harris is the highlight of this film. His crazy sheriff is unpredictable, darkly humorous, and fun. The little bits of back story that we were fed make him intriguing, but it's a bit unfortunate that they never capitalized on any of it. I thought that maybe there'd be plot twists and complicated alliances, like a Sergio Leone film, but I guess this isn't that kind of film. No, it's basically a beat-em-up video game where the hero kills all the villain's henchmen and then does a boss fight.There are quite a few postmodern touches to the film that may annoy old-school Western fans. For one thing, this a modern revenge thriller that's been transposed into a Western setting. As such, I don't think this was really meant to appeal to fans of classic Westerns. Instead, it's going for the Quentin Tarantino crowd, though it could have used more style and quotable dialog. For a poor man's QT film, this is not bad, but I'd recommend the real thing instead.
This is how we like our Westerns in Europe! Lotsa guns, lotsa dead men and a prostitute who wins! Yeah baby, give it to us! The only problem is that we kinda do our own fights here in Europe with many more dead people, we kinda like to copy all that 45 caliber. Yumm! What do you say about film like that, then excellent! Acting very very good! Scenery very very good! Costumography very very good! All in all a helluva Western! Pull that 45! Many times over! ;)
