Crappy film

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

This is a typical punishment and revenge movie. It starts very well with the tension building up and the events unfolding in the stagecoach and aftermath. Then, it sort of turns into a caricature of a western at the moment the colonel starts killing innocent town people wantonly. That plot may suit well to story in a Nazi concentration camp but becomes believable nowhere else including the wild West. His act is totally irrational because no one would like to create enemies out of nowhere. The pretext that colonel wanted to scare people to sell their lands cheap for the black gold also looks shaky because only after the discovery of ICE and its common use in the early 20th century, a huge demand grew for the petroleum. The one dimensional pure evil characterization of the colonel takes a lot from the movie. In Unforgiven, for example, the Sheriff acted by Gene Hackman has a much deeper character. Besides that, the cast and acting are very good. M. Mikkelsen certainly stands out in his lead acting role. The landscape scenes are beautifully shot. From start to the end, the movie never loses its pace and the length is good.

The best first thing you can say about this flick is that it's good old, down-home, operatic storytelling and character development.After that, it's icing on the cake. The production values are fantastic, and the direction and acting is spot-on.If you find western revenge dramas to be your thing, definitely check this one out.

The genre of the western has been slowly dying over the years but I had some interest in seeing the salvation and this film is just pretty forgettable which is a shame. The premise of this film is after a man has his family taken away from him he goes on the hunt for those responsible. Mads mikkelsson is the lead in this film and he does a really good job, he gives a subdued performance but one that you can tell has the anger and emotion in it to make you root for him in this film. Jeffrey dean Morgan plays the villain in this film and he does a good job, he is a pretty cliché villain but he manages to add some of his charisma to the role which makes him entertaining to watch. Eva green plays a mute character in this film and I never really cared about her in this film, I struggle sometimes with mute characters to connect with them and I think this was one of the problems with green here. All the other characters are paper thin in this film and it is hard to really Care about them in this film. The story is a simple revenge story and when it focuses on that it does work like most films of this sort do. Its when this film tries to focus on other things that it falls down as you really won't care about it. The script is really poor in this film, there is nothing here that stands out or does a good job at making you care about the dramatic scenes and there is no humour to be seen here. The style of this film is very much a straight up western here and some of the action scenes are pretty cool. But this film feels really short and I do feel like this film could have done with being a little longer to help flesh out some of the motivations of some of the characters in the film. Overall this is a film that is just there, it isn't bad but it isn't good so it probably isn't worth a watch.

WOW, great film, beautifully shot, well acted, great western. The lighting is harsh and real, the setting leaves dust in your mouth. Very well done. Okay, I could see how it would end a mile away, but still loved it anyway. Whoever the director of photography was is a maniac genius, just so cool to see the clever use of light upon the subjects faces, the minimalist dialogue, evil men being evil for a reason, good men taking revenge for a reason. Love the story, why did it take till 2017 to even hear about this great film?
