To Hell and Gone

No big name production here but real spaghetti western style. A pretty unbelievable plot with many holes but delivery kept me going. Try it out.

For an obviously low budget seat of the pants movie, I felt it was done well. Not a great film by any stretch, but told a story that was believable. Held my interest as I knew the locales it was shot in and around being Safford, Klondyke, Willcox and Tucson, Arizona. Decent film nonetheless. The characters were believable but the heist was a bit far fetched for the loot. Definitely a situation movie that can happen on any ranch or remote homestead so it brings in the what-would-I-do scenarios. As a back seat observer, it is easy to criticize but I would say it was worth my time. I've definitely sat through worse higher budget films. Good independent modern day western genre type film.

Decent little hiest movie. Thought it was going to be far worse than it was. I felt like it sat right on the edge of being really good but never quite got there. If they had written the drifters charachter to be more proactive in his efforts after the action comes to the ranch, I think it would have been much better. He was acting to selfishly for me to really root for the guy which seemed like the writers/directors intent. Acting was ok. Not bad. Not great.

Some original scenes and an inverted unnamed hero in a background of classical opera music; something definitely off the track and entertaining.

The director got a couple things right--beautiful cinematography and a likeable well developed supporting female character. Unfortunately he didn't make the lead male likeable because the character was introduced performing only immoral acts. Getting attached to his actions as a hero "to try save the day" later on wasn't as believable or easy.
