TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
gkhege I'm 69 years old and when I was a young boy, we walked three miles to town, just to watch all day westerns. The cost, three Pepsi bottle caps. That's right, three bottle caps, got you all day at the " Picture Show." My point, " I was watching westerns before mokst of you were born. This is one of the worst attempts at making a western I have ever seen. I only gave it a two because I'm old and senile.
jkm0119 The movie begins with something like there maybe some action. If you are looking for action in a western you will be disappointed. i could not decide if this was supposed to be a romance or an action or a moral story. It failed everyone of them. No action, romance was idiotic and the moral was stupid. I suggest this to people who have no understanding of anything and wish to think that leaving your wife and child is a good thing. Bad morals in this movie. The best part of the movie was the Eagles singing Desperado.
David Wile Hey folks, The four Desperado films from the late 1980s really are pretty good oaters, and they are a lot more exciting than many of the ones I enjoyed as a youth. Alex McArthur's Duell McCall is exciting to watch as the good "bad guy," and Richard Farnsworth is also always a safe bet to create a credible character. McCall's love interest, Nora (played by Lise Cutter), is here once again and, as ever, is very easy on the eyes.There have been very few reviews of the four films, and the forum boards for them have also had little written there. There are always negative comments made about any film, but these are pretty good westerns, and I would think more folks would be finding and reporting the same message.Best wishes, Dave Wile
aimless-46 I'll be brief: There's nothing good about this movie-if you can actually classify it as a movie; it's like a montage of poor reenactments of scenes from other Westerns. It looks like the producer saw the armored wagon from John Waynes's "The War Wagen" sitting around gathering dust in a studio garage and decided to film a bunch of extra's watching it blow up. Note I said "watching" because it blows up when a small log full of powder swings down on a rope and hits it. Add in the rainstorm in the canyon, (the one where the DP failed to notice a patch of sunlight showing on the edge of the frame), shake out the cheapest looking avalanche sequence since "Sky King", mix in a lot of atrocious acting and matching dialogue that can only aspire to comic book quality, and edit into oblivion.Nothing exciting, nothing remotely interesting (except Richard Farmsworth's embarrassed presence-hopefully he was well paid). Blech.
