Western World

It's difficult for anyone, even seasoned directors, to tackle the Western as a genre to test their abilities. Lana Read should be applauded for the effort but should be a lot more circumspect with the material they choose and the talent to carry it off. The Western has a history within the movie industry that stretches back a hundred years and has accumulated many casualties over the year's. It also numbers many successes and these stand proudly amongst some of the best films ever produced. High Noon, Shane and pale rider are just the tip of the very large pile. There are many many others. 'Western World' though is a very poor participant in such a competitive market. With the advantage of modern technology and computer graphics becoming the norm, audiences are becoming spoiled by these possibilities, however, simple can offer a refreshing alternative but there is a difference between simple and dull. Camera work and lighting are the cornerstone of good cinematic practice and 'Western World' suffers from poor aspects of the first and too much contrast of the other. Storyline and sets are another aspect that are critical to any films success and these are also poorly rendered. The most critical aspect of all though is acting and this is where any film will fail within the first few minutes of watching. In some cases this can happen in seconds. Making any film can be agonising for all those concerned but this pain should never be transferred to the public. I think Ms Read should look again at some of the great films and try to decide what really makes them stand alone.

This movie freaking blows, I bought it because the case looked like it may be a good movie. Not only do the actors suck, but none of the scenes on the case actually take place in the actual movie. I wouldn't recommend this movie to my worst enemy. I wish I could have both my time and money back.

In a nut shell this is not worth any ones time. I would not say it was bad acting but rather they can not act. I am sure that your children's school play would be better than this production.

The story line is very slow and none captivating in the least. For the scenery it is mediocre and not really used in the story line.

The only good thing about the production is that they gave people a job and chance to earn some money.

Wow! 600 words, to simply say, " Bad Movie!" Oh my goodness, are these people professional actors or did someone at this recreation of a western town just get drunk and yell out, " Hey! Let's get drunk, talk real funny and make a home video and call it a movie. We can get some fifth graders to write the script and have some rednecks teach us the dialogue.

The southern accents sound nothing like Andy Griffin or Aunt Bee. I have 163 characters left in the 600 required so I guess I will have to think of something else to say about this terrible film. I can't think of any more words that would convince you to to never ever watch this mess.

This would have been a fairly good movie. If it would have ended with the solution of the murder mystery. But they had to add something else to end which was not necessary. Sometimes Directors and writers need to know when to end a movie.
