Chris B Great cast typical story. Thus the bad reviews. I liked it kept things interesting and involved in the story. This one is worth it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/24 Full Review Mark B Highly underrated! Western's are not as popular as they once were. I understand. But, this is very effective movie. While keeping with familiar themes and characters it's very entertaining and enjoyable. Especially for those that enjoy westerns. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member another great western to add to your collection Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/25/22 Full Review jelisije j A decent western flick that would've been better if they didn't use historical figures and use fictional characters instead. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review christopher c. m They end up held up with Billy The Kid who is holding out against Pat Garrett. Ignoring two major facts that Garrett was a federal marshal not a sheriff, ergo able to cross state lines. And the mounting evidence that Billy the Kid really lived to a ripe old age. That Sara thinks they'd hang for killing their father stepfather. Which they wouldn't, even in the old west self defense was a good defense. Maybe it's Sara's fault being stupid and not a thing this movie would say will happen. But that ignorance is puts the rest of the plot in motion. Lastly, this is why I hate most modern westerns. They're bleak, boring and dill with no likable characters. And makes me wonder why so many love this boring backward time. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/02/24 Full Review Boneyard L This is a solid modern western that has a lot going for it. In some ways it's a mashup of other westerns, but with its own fresh shootouts and getaways. Chris Pratt has an excellent turn as a bone-chilling villain, and Dane DeHaan is clearly having a lot of fun as Billy the Kid. The plot rambles a bit too much and at least one key moment is unearned, with muddled motivation. Sill, this film is definitely worth a watch for fans of Westerns, but it's not going to bring anyone to the genre.Content warning: rapeCloset comparison: It's like The Night of the Hunter by way of 3:10 to Yuma.Setting: WesternPlot: On the RunTone: Thriller Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/22 Full Review Read all reviews
