The Counterfeit Kid

If you go to see this movie with low expectations, you're sure to be pleasantly surprised. It is a family friendly but far from boring look at some very interesting characters, especially Chaco and Edna May, who definitely steal the show. You might expect wooden performances since there are no "big name" stars, but the actors were very professional. Since it was filmed in Wonderful Wyoming, the scenery is, well, a scene stealer. The storyline is thoughtful and leaves the viewer with a satisfied feeling upon exiting the theater. I might add that the music which accompanied the movie was amazing, and rivals anything from a Hollywood studio. All in all, his is a very likable movie and will satisfy your cravings for a good western.

Creative movie that will make you laugh and also want to move to Wyoming for the scenery. The Counterfeit Kid has some very good actors who do a great job delivering a well written script. There is just the right balance of action and comic relief to keep you entertained as you follow the story of Jack aka Bloody Ben Harris. If you've been to Cody, WY or around the Big Horn Mountains, you'll recognize some of the places that were used in the film.

When watching this movie, keep in mind it was literally made with someone's personal budget. The end product is absolutely amazing considering the resources available. Quality soundtrack as well!

Hats off to Matthew Taggart for realizing his idea to make this film!

Six hundred characters really? Well if that's the requirement here goes- I was so happy to finally see a movie that was filmed in beautiful Wyoming . What a wonderful script. Funny, clean and clever. The scenery was beyond gorgeous and I was happy to watch an hour and a half movie instead of the two to three hour so called Hollywood blockbusters of today. No CGI just natural beauty. I loved the casting and freshness of this movie. Bring your kids and grandkids. It is not a dead serious western but more of a love story with lots of humor. I hope to see many more films that leave me smiling when I leave the theater.

Great story with some pretty dang good actors. The cinematography was on point with some breathtaking shots of Wyoming, the music was simple, cute, and brought all the feels of a nostalgic western, and the story was engaging. While there were one or two spots where the audio didn't seem to match up, it didn't detract from the story. The main antagonist did so good, I wish there was a bigger back story on him.

Grab your family, even the little ones, grab your popcorn and favorite drinks, and sit down to enjoy this fun western that will have even little kids laughing out loud. My favorite character was Jerry, so funny and genuine.

If you're on the fence about watching this film, just do it! Totally worth it. So many gems to look out for. First, the scenery in this movie is second to none. Sometimes I got caught up just looking at the breathtaking mountains, rivers and valleys and had to remind myself to focus on the story! The score was fabulous and could not have complimented the views any better. The plot and storyline were clever, suspenseful and hilarious. I also really enjoyed the well appointed special effects that made some of the scenes especially interesting. If you watch closely, you will find them. Watch it, you won't be sorry!
