To Hell and Gone

Went into this with somewhat low expectations, but came away not feeling that I had wasted 80 minutes of my life. Not a high budget movie by any means, yet the production quality was pretty good. I didn't see the usual signs of a low budget movie: inept camera work, exceedingly cheap sets, high school level acting. The movie looked good, but to be fair, I spend a lot of time in Arizona and am familiar with most of the filming locations, so I'm a bit biased. The actors looked to be well cast, although one of the bad guys was a bit over the top. The female lead was very well cast. As far as the story goes, I agree with others that the story of the drifter was not as well fleshed out as it should have been. I would've liked seeing his part being more proactive and heroic. Overall, he was a likable character, but it was hard to tell if his actions in the second half of the movie were self-serving, or altruistic. I don't think this movie rates a "10", but it's certainly better than the low ratings here, too.

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.

Rarely does the start of a movie draw my interest as fast as To Hell And Gone did. With its spaghetti western soundtrack And mix of classical music the movie drew me in straight away I loved the photography , scenery and camera work A pretty good turn for the actors also , proof you do not need A huge budget to make a great movie.

There are some reviewers that NEVER give more than a 1 Star rating. All items reviewed by psxexperten over the past two years have all shown a 1 star rating. That makes those reviews worthless in my opinion.
