Reviews
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.
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
They gallop around in their paddock. Not much else registered with me. I didn't identify with any of the characters. Nor, it seems, does anyone else. There was a fat, ugly, sheriff-type mayor, crooked-like man, probably corrupt, who was clearly the bad guy. At the end he had an improbable race, riding a horse, with the slender heroine riding another horse. She had made no impact on me at all, but she won the race. It was no surprise. Then the bad guy seemed to turn into a good guy, after all. The setting was pleasantly rural. The horses played their parts well. Can't think of a good reason for watching it. Harmless. Stockwell had a very strange little beard.
