Fun and Engaging Modern Western.
Manages to Mingle a Menagerie of Moments from the Long History of the Genre with Heart-Felt Fan Appeal.
Hoping that the Audience will Hop on Board and Enjoy the Ride.
The Reaction has been Mixed.
The Current Metacritic Score is 4.2.
Down and Dirty Fans of the Western seem to Like it.
The Westerns from the Past Blow in and Out of the Movie Like Tumbleweed.
You Notice then it's Gone. But Other Fleeting Visitors will Show-Up.
This is Part of the Charm.
None of it is Heavy-Handed.
Just an Inducement to Pay Attention while the Plot Unfolds with some Originality.
While Writer-Director-Star, Scott Martin has some Chops of His Own.
When the Two Lead Characters, Gamblers, are Playing Cards and the Camera Slowly Creeps in for an Over the Shoulder Peek, You Hear...
"7's?... No......Go Fish"
It's a Laugh Out Loud Moment that Appears at a Time when the Movie is Flatly an Unambiguous Stating...
"Having Fun Yet?"
That is the Point where You make a Personal Decision to Follow Along or Not.
It's an Underrated New Western that has been Coming in a Slow-Wave.
Testing the Temperature of the Masses to See if the Western Genre is Infectious Again.
Smart and Artistically Fulfilling.
Definitely Worth a Watch.

This is a great little western that's just plain entertaining. As previous reviewers have noted, it's got some humor along with the gunfighting. The acting, IMHO, is pretty darned good. All the actors do seem like they're enjoying their parts and they're all committed to making this the best movie possible. I recommend this film.
This is no John Wayne or Gary Copper western but not bad the characters where enjoyable the costumes seemed to be close to period and the sets where ok . If your looking for a great story this isint it but if you like a decent shoot em up western with some comic relief this is not a bad movie .
This was a good flick, funny and smart. The characters are well drawn. There is some language and a quick flash of nudity but overall a clean movie for the whole family. Story of an accountant looking for his brother, hires some gamblers to help guide him, not happy with what he finds. I'd recommend this one. Best western I've seen in years!
Actually liked this film, but you need to drop preconceived expectations that it is a serious western. I definitely felt a chemistry among the actors...it seemed most were actually enjoying their characters. A few good laughs and general entertainment value is what I got out of the film, and frankly, that's what I was looking for when I hit "play".

- TriviaWhen Johnny Kane first meets Jake in the bar he says to Jake: "I hear you're real fast" to which Jake responds: "I'm just a sporting man." This is the same thing Johnny Ringo says to Doc Holiday in the film Tombstone and Doc gives a similar response. A very obvious homage the now classic western.
- GoofsEverybody in Big Kill denies knowing anybody named Grant when Jim asks around, but he is the mayor of the town. And nobody is surprised when Jim calls him Grant, so it is not as if Grant has been living there incognito or under a different name. This is never explained in the movie.
Perhaps they were protecting the head of the illegal rustled cattle crew that provides much of the town's revenue.

Jim Andrews: I don't want to stay here any longer than we have to. We don't seem very welcome.
Jake Logan: We're used to that.
