Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

PlatinumRead Just so...so bad

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

srlucado Several minuses (silly plot, typical TV-movie production values), several pluses (a fight scene in a bar that is truly unique, good Canadian locations), and quick pacing add up to a decent time-waster.Whatever you do, don't follow the story, actually look at a map, and think about the distances these people need to cover on horseback. It'd be hard enough to do in a Ford Mustang, let alone on a four-legged one. But what the heck.One big plus is a ripping theme song; might've become a dance-club hit--in some alternate universe.Overall, this movie is okay.

John (opsbooks) Like most Westerns I've viewed lately, this came in a cheap 10-movies for ten bucks DVD pack. I figured when the credits rolled that as it had George Kennedy in it, it had to be good viewing. And such was the case; a simple good verses bad story, an interesting script and intelligently underplayed performances by a likable cast.As someone else pointed out, the locations didn't seem appropriate but it didn't seem to matter. The story maintained my - and my viewing companion's - interest from start to finish. The actual print wasn't the best being rather washed out, unless that was the intended effect!So all in all, a Western in the vintage style, more akin to what you'd see in a movie house in the late 1930s, if a bit more realistic. And for the dollar cost, a bargain.

garundaboink Look at any western and you can tell when it was made. How? Simply look at the haircuts and judge when they were in style. Two of the protagonists in this movie have eighties-style hockey-hair, and the older protagonist has kept his hippie-days hair. That means the film was made in the eighties. The costumes and makeup are also terribly anachronistic with Matt wearing a Levi's low cut jean jacket and tight jeans and his old girlfriend wearing lip gloss. And is that Ronnie Hawkins singing a nauseating bluesy crossover country tune from the start of the film to the end? Did they sing like that in 1870 which this film is trying to depict? The story jumps from one melodrama to the next, bouncing from a power hungry evil villain stopping honest cowpunchers from watering their cattle, to a bar fight with whips, to a self-defense killing, to stage-coach robbing, to train robbing, to jail-train breaks, to... well, when the three are assisting a birth for a hapless woman on a runaway stagecoach you get the feeling you are watching a combination of ER and the Titanic, with horses floating around in the background. One asks when they might resort to yelling "Code Blue, Ranch Shack Six, Stat" with the jiggle-cam jumping to odd corners of the room at violent jerky angles. Everything in this movie was done before, in several genres! Like Sam Goldwyn said, "Gimme some new cliches." I must find a hobby. One which requires the usage of glue and unusable DVD's. It would be a better way to spend my time.

roger_nt A good movie to watch when you're stuck at home in a blizzard, there's nothing else on TV, and you've seen everything else in your collection. The dialogue is bad, the plot unbelievable, and the ending beyond comprehension, but other than that, it's not bad.
