I bought this on a whim because I love westerns and the story seemed intriguing. It was. I thought this was a very good movie. Very well acted with characters you care about and some good classic western action. I have been growing tired of the westerns that have no heroes that seems to be the thing lately. The main character is refreshing because he is tough as nails, and yet is heroic and sacrificial in his service for justice. It is based on a true story, or they play real historical characters at least, which makes it all the more interesting. The soundtrack was fun also with a primarily single guitar just like a western should have, but with some interesting modern music thrown in to add emotion to some scenes. It was effective. Super fun movie.
On a different note, I am getting tired of this site because of all the ridiculous negative reviews on every movie title. They are not helpful because they all are versions of "it is bad." I don't even pay any attention to them anymore, but it used to distract me. Who wastes time reviewing a movie they hated? (If, in fact, they actually watched it...) This movie's negative reviews do not match what was on the screen and are very harsh for what the film is. If you like westerns this is a worthy watch for something different.
