The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

I came to this movie without any preconceived notions or expectations. I don't usually watch westerns (I don't think Shanghai Noon or My Name Is Nobody would be considered as such by the great and the good!) but as I like Matt & Jeff Campagna's style, I thought it was worth a look.The movie opens with the four main protagonists in a situation where you just KNOW someone will get shot. What is going on? How did they get here? These questions are answered as the movie progresses, and even though you are expecting a twist, you will not guess what that twist is ultimately revealed to be! I must admit, I wasn't sure what to expect of this movie, I didn't know if a "Post Apocalyptic Western" was going to be to my taste. Well, if this offering from the Campagna Brothers is anything to go by, I can't wait to see the next Internext Studios production! The desert location, the western-style characters, the preacher, the secret town, all add to the story, which is well written, well told, and very engaging. I watched out of curiosity, but I'll watch again just to enjoy the movie again! I don't want to spoil your enjoyment of this movie by revealing too much. However, I must say that even though they claim it was made on a "shoestring" budget, and sometimes that is noticeable, it doesn't detract from the story, or from the way it's told. The cast do a great job, and I would highly recommend it.

... have I been this disappointed in a supposed breakthrough low budget Indie.This film is a bit of a stretch I'd say. Casting a bunch of fresh-faced 20 somethings with new beards, earrings, and barely a grasp of cowboy dialect doesn't do much for a film billing itself as a Western. The convoluted narrative left me with a total lack of interest about halfway through the film. The score was pretty good, cinematography decent, but I'm sorry, I just couldn't make it to the end. Next time, try tailoring your script to fit better with the resources you have available.

Six Reason's Why is an echo of earlier creations of both Sergio Leone and Sam Peckinpah, if on a smaller scale. If you like these filmmakers, chances are you will appreciate SRW. If you don't know these filmmakers, its still definitely worth a look for its layered storytelling, and new take on old school westerns.After viewing the film, I was quite impressed, knowing that this film was shot with a shoe-string budget, didn't really cross my mind while I was watching it. That in itself is a feat. Also working with relatively unknown actors (aside from Feore, who's scenes are short but sweet), one might think that without a lightening pace, interest could fade. It doesn't. In fact it builds throughout the film as each character's pasts and motives come to light. Some are explained more than others, which leaves some questions to be asked, but in a good way, a la the man with no name. The story is told in a Tarantino-esquire, non linear format that leaves the viewer hanging, and the slow build to the inevitable showdown is done with sharp stylized dialogue, splashes of violence and some beautiful eye candy shots.This film is not for the impatient, but if you stick with it, you will find it rewarding with its post-apocalyptic hinted setting, cryptic storytelling and an outcome that will leave you wanting to know more about the story, after the film ends. A great little indie film. Qudos to the Bros Campagna, looking forward to see what comes next.

It takes place in the future, but that's just a time frame. Of the fact that it's in the future you will only see TWO visual hints. I won't name 'em.This is a western that harks to old Eastwood 'Fistful of dollars' style but done 21st centurywise. The Directing and camera work is done spare and elegant. You start off thinking it's being done cheap-- but it isn't. The creators have an innate feel and understanding of what the adult 'Western' sought to illuminate.The focus are the Men and their Pasts, All strangers meeting in the desert. And the Desert as a crucible from which the Truth and Survival is forged.There are no spoilers here, that would be an insult to the film's creators. . .So have a brew or a glass ready nearby and Watch the movie. And just try to figure out who is Who. The ending WILL surprise you.
