The Righteous and the Wicked

The shots are too long. The editing needs help, sort of inexperienced, too many cut-aways.. The filming is good... decent DP. No character development. All adds up to a slow and tedious plot.

This may seriously be the worst movie I have ever seen. There is no content! Everything that happens in this movie could be summarized in a single short paragraph. The dialog is horrible, the acting is worse, and everything happens at a snails pace. This may be the only western movie I've watched where you never see a horse run. A character commands the other to "get moving" and they respond by spurring the horse into a slow plod. Completely ridiculous. The "gunfights" in this movie even prove to be dis-interesting. I use the term cautiously as there are no actual gunfights included - they are, in actuality, executions.

Where do we start? The music doesn't fit the film. Hugo Montenegro has nothing to worry about. The actors, trying to sound grave and important, like Eastwood, miss the mark horribly. The plot, not exactly original, is carried out with a level of ineptitude rarely seen these days. The only thing left to the imagination is what the plot is supposed to be about. Listening to our "German" safe-cracker absolutely butcher his "German accent" when he spoke was the most entertaining part of the entire flick. It almost hurt to hear him talk. Recommendation: Rent it for a dollar, microwave some popcorn, sit back, and be almost entertained...

"Nobody needs the trouble but we all need the money." After a local bank is robbed a group of outlaws begin a chase to find the money. There is not much to say about this movie. Like most of the westerns lately it is flat, pretty boring and full of bad acting. This one is not as bad as most mainly because it is so boring and the acting is flat and emotionless there is really nothing to talk about. This one has quite possibly the worst "duel" gunfight scene I have ever seen it's almost worth watching just to see that. Overall, better then most of the newer westerns that have been released, but still for the hardcore western fan only. I give it a C.
