SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

rzajac 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.

Michael Ledo Jon (Mads Mikkelsen) is a Dutch immigrant living in what will be "oil country." After seven years he brings his wife and child to the US to live with him. Things don't work out and Jon becomes a vigilante force in a western version of "Walking Tall." Eva Green is in the film, but has no speaking lines. The bad guy wears a black hat. Plenty of killing. I found the film to be formula and the dead pan character of Jon plus the quiet Eva Green made the dialogue thing a joke.Guide: No F-bombs or nudity (Congrats Eva Green on getting a role where you keep on your clothes. Now try for a speaking part with no nudity.) Implied sex.

janielastinger I just watched this movie and was surprised that it was good. Jeffrey Dean Morgan was the reason I decided to watch. He was so good I almost hated him. Forgive me for not knowing the names of the other actors. The Hero and his brother were really good as was the mute lady. Good movie and I'm glad I watched it.

dcnilsen It does not necessarily have to be a western...I just love any really good and well made movie whatever the genre...but I feel compelled to write a review of this movie in particular...The first time I watched it I was well pleased with it...although I was initially dismayed by the opening dialogue, which was foreign(Danish?)...but because it seemed so well shot and the scenery was so well devised, I decided I would watch it even if there wasn't a word of English in it...There was a definite sense of quality right from the getgo..and I felt even if I did not understand a word, the action would pretty much tell the story, being a western and all...Well, I was glad I stuck with it, because about 5-10 minutes in, everyone began speaking in English which was a relief....However, it was the second time watching the movie about a month later that it finally became clear just what a fine piece of work this film really is..It is all there...everything you want in a memorable movie...just the kind of effort that makes you want to watch it multiple times, because each time you find something else you did not notice the time before...One thing that really impressed me about it was the wonderful music..a plaintive Spanish guitar riffing most of the time with very tasteful violins in the background...really excellent music score...and the obvious spaghetti western influence was also there..but done tastefully and sparingly..not heavyhanded at all....ALL the characters were topflight and the dialogue and screenplay NEVER insults your intelligence...Everything was done tastefully and just the way you would want it from a historical perspective...just the right amount of dirt on everyone's face, just the right macho countenance from the actors, all the right accoutrements and firearms...all perfectly done.I am looking forward to the next viewing in perhaps another few months from now...I am sure I will find even more to be pleased about...These type of high quality movies are FEW and FAR BETWEEN these days, and I intend to savor each and every viewing in the future..
