I didn't really love this film. I think it is competently made and you can tell the director knew what he was doing, i just think it was pretty average. The story is very slow, it is almost a road movie. You can see the ending coming from a mile off. I just don't know if this was a story that needed to be told. The script was pretty beige to me too. It wasn't gripping. It wasn't really passionate either. It just felt like a movie script from a western from 2006 that we have all forgot and you may have rented from blockbuster once but you don't really remember it. It just wasn't fresh. I do think the set pieces were pretty good. They looked really nice and in turn provided some lovely shots. I didn't love the colour of this film. It was very muted. I get that it was a western but it just looked really grey and washed out. Maybe this was a choice i just didn't love it. The acting was pretty good especially from the two leads. Some of the other acting was a bit over the top and out of place. Some of the antagonists seemed like pantomime villains and i also think when they were on screen the script also sagged. It turned into Saturday mourning cartoons a little bit. I do think some of the action scenes were engaging however. I think they were pretty tense and enjoyable to watch. I think you could watch this, just keep in mind it is slow. Do i think it should win any awards. No. But you could definitely check it out.

I respect Tom Hanks as an actor who almost always picks great roles with great stories. This had neither. To save you reading an " Average, Predictable, Cliched, Uninspiring, Not IMRAN Worthy" review, 😉 ... just know that I've already said it all in the headline. "Average, Predictable, Cliched, Uninspiring, Not Hanks Worthy!"

Incredible performances, great script, brilliantly directed. We rarely get movies like this now. Savour it. Ignore the IMDB rating, these people are clowns.
