Featured review
Funny how if you don't like something then your some type of brutish American who only wants violence and action.
Can't a movie just be bad for no reason except it sucks and historically inaccurate.
This movie is ripe with historical inaccuracies, i'm only sharing one because it's what caused most people to leave the movie. The horses at the start is a dead giveaway about how historically inaccurate and lack of thought and care put into storytelling. The horse is too nice to be in the old west the horse its overall confirmation and health really distracts from the storytelling. On top of it it looks like somebody threw a bucket of water on the horse to make it look like it was sweating not real accurate. They put no thought to how it would luck if a horse was sweaty personally I think they only cared about getting a few well known actors which is still a disservice for the audience. Additionally the horse keeps doing dressage moves throughout which within the first five minutes caused all the horses people in my family to get up and walk out of the movie. I know you can't get everything historically accurate but within the first five minutes of movie is falling apart and not allowing you to suspend the reality and put you self in the time period. It's important that the Director and writer care enough about the story process not to distract but to draw the viewer in. For the lack of care of this movie is why I give it such a poor review you don't respect the audience why should I even bother to spend the time watching your movie.

Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsWhen the mother and her motley crew of desperadoes decide to leave town, the hero refuses to let them go. Instead, he informs them that he intends to turn them over to the Confederate Army when it arrives in a few days. This would mean the action takes place in the 1860s during the American Civil War. Later, when they bury John Boone Hawkins, the date of his date on his wooden cross is 1888, more than twenty years after the end of the war in 1865.
