A Reckoning

Who puts up the money for this garbage? This is the second failure I've seen this week from Justin Lee - the first being another miserable mess Any Bullet Will Do. Does he not know how to write a screenplay or direct his actors? Dumb story that goes nowhere and actors that don't know how to act! Lousy pacing and boring extended scenes that make you yawn. If you have insomnia, this will put you to sleep. Seriously, a 5th grade drama class can come up with a better production! A generous 2/10 for the cinematography.

Watch the first 5 minutes, then skip to the last 5 minutes. This is nothing more than a 10 minute movie, at best. There are more scenes of rivers, streams and oceans than anything else of importance through the middle of it.

(2018) A Reckoning WESTERN

Written and directed by Justin Lee that has Mary (June Dietrich) seeking retribution after her husband was discovered mauled. And she offers the property that she owns in exchange for a gun and a horse so she can go after the person who has done this. Lance Henrickson also stars as the mouthpiece of the tent group attempting to convince Mary not to go and do this since they already got bounty hunters and so forth to do this. He only appears at the beginning and that is it, for the rest of the movie has Mary trekking the man responsible.

Although it is a western, much of the movie takes place in the forest. It's a poor attempt to duplicating a much superior Western like "Hostiles" starring Christian Bale from 2017. The forest environment did not bother me, but the inconsistencies did, like the guy who took Mary's horse, forcing her to walk. And after she succeeds to killing him, she never bother to retrieve her horse back. And the main bad guy, Marrow (Kevin Makely), I mean, what's up with him! How come the only bullets he has are the ones on his holster? Where is his gun belt? Cannibal killers, particularly do not carry a pistol without gun belts.

Movie starts out ok, then drags all the way to the end, how she goes about trying to get revenge is just all together boring. Also the way she acts at times makes no sense if she was really out there doing this. Waste of time.

Very DISSATISFYING..I WANNA CHOKE WHO EVER MADE THIS MOVIE!!!WHAT A SHAME REALLY JUST TO MAKE MONEY?AND FOR THE CASTS, ARE YOU NOT CHECKING OR WATCH YOURSELVES BEFORE BRINGING IT OUT TO THE PUBLIC???
