  • I had so much fun with this one. Probably one of the best times I had in a theatre this year. As for pros, the proformances from Washington, Pratt and Hawke were really good. The action sequences were really great, even know there are only two or three throughout the film. The cinimotography was also suprisingly strong, while also taking advantage of wide shots of the west. As for cons, this movie is so cliché. You've seen this all before. It has all the Western clichés, and most of them are welcome in this case, since it makes the film more entertaining. I also felt that this movie went on about twenty minutes longer then I'd wish it would, but overall, this is a very fun western that I'd think anyone who wants to see it will enjoy.
