Review
I don’t watch many westerns though I do enjoy them when I do. This one was really good for the most part. I thought the acting was superb, particularly Christain Bale and Ben Foster. I thought the movie dragged a bit in the 2nd act. It then gets really good for the final half hour though I thought the shootout at the end was more like Arnie in Commando (a movie I love by the way though it’s completely different ). Far fetched to say the least. That aside, it was a great movie, great acting, and a great score. Nothing really negative to say, I enjoyed it and I will seek out the original also. Great pick.
Trivia
Tom Cruise was originally approached to play Ben Wade. He turned the project down.
