GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
tdcarde Well this "movie" is pretty much a joke, and most of us that live in the area where it was filmed (central Illinois) simply kept tabs on its myspace page during its filming for a good laugh. Actually what completely degrades the integrity of this film, other than the fact there's absolutely no acting skill and the screenplay is complete garbage (the awkward number of times God**** is said is of drinking game proportions), is that they actually try to compare its story and I'm assuming overall quality to classic, award-winning western films. REALLY. Whoever's idea it was to add that caption under the title, comparing it "in the tradition" of a film that won 7 Oscars... wow.Now if someone were to make a movie about the making of this movie (a la Christopher Guest's "Waiting For Guffman") that might garner something of a following.
straty02 I sat down to watch this with my uncle and father, both of them just love westerns. However this is more like a 'folks in the woods' rather than a true 'western'. The acting was truly bad, it looked and felt like an amateur stage show, even the guns sounded like starter pistols.Some of the lines in the film are so bad that they are funny, if only the actors were not trying to be serious! After watching this we all heartily agreed that it was one of the worst films ever made.If you are a fan of westerns I recommend that you sit down to one of your Audie Murphy westerns from the 1950's and watch that instead.Don't waste your time with this one folks.
mcpts This was a wonderful western, with a very sweet love story mixed right in. The characters were believable in their roles, and did a great job with sincerity. I have always loved westerns, and lately there hasn't been very many western movies coming out. These days just about every new movie coming out is a horrible blood and guts horror movie that I totally don't care to see, so you bet it is nice to see a great western pop up with lots of beautiful horses and scenery accompanied by incredibly great music. This is a real-good, feel-good movie, and you know there hasn't been very many of those out as of late. Check it out, you'll be glad you did. There is nothing better to make for an enjoyable evening than watching a movie such as this. Well done everyone, well done!
alsmith46 This is a really great western. Hard to believe it was shot entirely in Illinois. I am from Texas and it sure fooled me. This is a truly wonderful experience and I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. We need more of these independent films that show that people can make a movie an act of love and dedication. You can see that the folks that made this movie really cared about doing the best job possible and without being paid or having some kind of contract. It was created in their spare time and definitely took many hours of their free time to make it. Again all I can say is job well done folks, this is truly a labor of love. Hope to see more of these great endeavors.
