The Harder They Fall

Take it as it is: a terrific entertainment full of stars, charisma and pure fun. It took me by surprise, hooked from the very first cold blooded scene throughout and never let me down as a high budget Netflix film. So much fun!

Original take on the western genre. The story is a pure revenge western style story o on that part no problem. The way it was shot is excellent too as was the editing.

And if you think the score is typical Morricone sound forget it, it's full of music not connected to the genre, the reggae sound being the strangest one. But it all works fine.

Effects are great too, the red stuff is there but the only thing that I thought was why does it has to be so long. Over 2 hours and that shows in the middle part. It falls downwards in speed for over half an hour.

Still, an excellent cast and one funny statement, it's a white town... you will see what I mean. Great western.

Gore 1/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0,5/5.

Love a Western!!! This one was fun graphic and violent!!! The Cinematography was great , If you're a fan of Tarantino check this one out.same old story good vs Evil but with a 21st century vibe , so if you have Netflix and wanting to find something new to watch check it out.

The opportunity to view a black western appealed to me. It is hard not to see and feel racial overtones dominating the storyline.

Great acting but the direction felt like there was too much modern racial tension. Sort of a cowboys in the hood feel. The story was pretty loose. Clean camera work, great backdrop and props. Lack of diversity left me feeling it went past it's purpose. Clean production.

And then the Martian tried to make a western. A painfully slow epic which steals from every western genre that came before it, but then it lapses into reggae musical interludes. And the gratuitous violence against everybody, Jesus... and no story. Well, there is a story, but the film meanders so much you don't care. The weirdest thing I've ever seen. Watch 3:10 to Yuma again, instead...or maybe The Harder They Come ;=)
