A Fistful of Lead

I can only assume those good reviews are from relatives of the writer and director, because this was a very amateurish production. The dialogue was awful, the story might have been okay if it had been competently told (but it wasn't), and the actors all seemed like they were appearing in their first film.

The gore was gratuitous and rather than adding to the film, it just took you out of your suspension of disbelief. The comedy elements (I think they were intentional) were out of place and poorly executed. The female characters appeared to be there purely to give a nod to feminism, and to stretch the run-time a little by giving them some angry sounding lines which they did at least deliver with almost believable enthusiasm. There isn't a single likeable character.

Very poor effort. Makes me think I should try writing films. I couldn't do much worse than this.

Avoid.

... if you want to believe all the high rating reviews ... that's your choice , i've seen the movie and have no connection to the film makers ... to me it's low budget rubbish, poor acting, poor script , action is belittled by the cheap CGI and cheap props ... i want my money back!

This film made me laugh. Seriously, how can you not love it? So simple and low budget but it still created some great entertainment. Blood splattering on the camera, guts falling on the ground, all wrapped around a very bloody and messy opening bank robbery mystery. There is no good acting but I have to give credit to Richard Sandling as Johnny Rumford. This guy makes the film what it is, a barrel of laughs. Nothing high tech to be seen here but hopefully you share my sense of humour. Sheriff Noone's use of the Confederate LaMat revolver, only added to my enjoyment. If Canada ever recovers its liberty, I'm going to get myself one of these. Fun fun if you can bear it.

Unbelievable that with all the knowledge filmmakers have , it is still possible to make such a bad movie. Bad direction. Bad acting. Bad costumes. You see it already in the first two minutes. What were they thinking?

I had the feeling to watch a Ben Wheatley's film, after this one. But a poor man's Ben Wheatley. Some stuff very difficult to describe, with not really heroes, not lead character as in any other film. But I like that, despite the bland actors and improbable directing. It is violent, but violent in such a way that you are not really shocked, just surprised. Actually, I thought of a Uwe Boll's movie. Uwe Boll who would have made a western, which he has never done, as far as I know. It looks pretty amateur but acceptable, fun to watch, even while pealing your potatoes for supper.
