Any Bullet Will Do

10/18/2018 Definitely worth watching one time, but the storyline and acting could have been much, much better. Enjoy it for what it is and try not to be to critical while you watch. Bon Appetit

I wanted to like this, since it was set in an area I know and like. Unfortunately, nothing about this was decent except the location. Poor direction, a bad script, and maybe collectively some of the worst acting I've ever seen. The story could have been great, but sadly, this was really awful. I think three stars was being generous.

Perhaps the film's great cinematography will stand out, as well as the beauty of its female lead, Jenny Curtis. Other than that, the story moves sparingly with its share of backstory, blood, and old-times dialogue. Not a great movie, but not a bad one, either.

I hate books and movies that shout virtues in my face. A virtue cannot be forced into you. It must be introduced softly and gently, in a way that you feel it as part of your essence, as something that you always were and don't have to think about it and consider it. People want to find something from themselves in the movie, not to be taught what to be. Not to mention that feminism and racism stand very insulting as main points in this movie. We should have been forgotten that social problems long time ago and movies like this one are only bringing it back in the most annoying way. Two stars for the efforts in the camera work.

This is the second failure I've seen this week from Justin Lee - the other being another miserable mess, A Reckoning. Does he not know how to write a screenplay or direct his actors? I guess this is the result when all your experience in writing and directing is TV series. At least give one of those hats to a professional that can teach you something before you try to do it all yourself when taking on a full length feature film. And what's with the Westerns genre? Dumb story that goes nowhere with lousy pacing and boring extended scenes that make you yawn. At least the directing was slightly better than A Reckoning. A generous 3/10 for the cinematography and directing.
