Trivia
Quentin Tarantino named it one of his favorite films of the 80s in a podcast with Joe Rogan.

Goofs
When Scudder shoots Hector in the chest, a small amount of blood leaks out of the wound, and there is no blood on the blue door behind Hector. This suggests the bullet stayed inside Hector's body. Hector continues standing for several seconds, with a small amount of blood trickling. The next second, Hector drops and the front of his shirt is drenched in blood, as well as the door behind him. This suggests an explosive through-and-through shot.

A Gritty 80's Film

"8 Million Ways to Die" is a movie about crime that has action and suspense. It is directed by Hal Ashby and stars Jeff Bridges. The story is about a man who used to be a police officer, but now has problems with alcohol. He gets involved with bad people who sell drugs and have prostitutes. He tries to solve a case and things get dangerous. The movie has intense and dark scenes, and the actors do a good job, especially Jeff Bridges. The movie is not perfect because sometimes it is slow and the story is confusing. However, it is still a good movie that shows how bad life can be in the city and how addiction can hurt people. It makes you think about how people can change and find hope. If you like crime movies with action and realism, you should watch this one. I give it a 7 out of 10 stars.
