This movie was fantastic, definitley see this movie, wether you rent it or buy it or watch it on demand, its something you should see. Western movies are sort of withering away, because the genre was so over juiced no one could make a western with out falling into a cliche. Somehow, this movie completley defies all cliches.
Ben Wade is the most wanted, sharp shooting, caravan stealing, villian of this movie, played wonderfully by Russel Crowe. The main character, Dan Evans, (played by Christian Bale) is offered a reward for escorting Ben Wade safely to the train, so he can be taken to jail. Meanwhile, Ben Wade's team of criminals is following close behind. This movie is so great I can't even begin to explain. One of my favorite actors makes an appearence, Luke Wilson, which also ups the movie in my books.
This movie is great, you are at all times interested, all I can say is that I wish I had seen it in theaters. The acting is incredible, the whole western feeling is so cool. Watch it. For sure.
