Just one moment that caused some emotional reaction ([spoiler]church scene, when the son explains what he has done[/spoiler]), isn't really enough to make this a good movie. Solid story, solid performances, average movie.
This is a blast. Really the interaction between father and son was beautiful. The whole movie feels real, thanks partly to a great shooting but also to Kiefer Sutherland being that conflicted man seeking peace if not redemption. Honestly there is no small acting par in there, and all of them do a great job. I would highly recommend that you watched that, because it's really one of the great drama of 2016. This should get Oscars nominations, for photography, acting and giving the viewers a real good fucking time :)
This almost went under my radar. While the plot may sound stereotypical the execution isn´t. Great camara shots and angles. And the way the story is unfolding is at the right pace. It has every element of the classic western but this goes way deeper. I never pictured Kiefer in a Western setting but he delivers a great performance as does his father. Again, I must add, don`t be put off by the rating.
This could have been great. Strong primary cast, very weak supporting cast and no clear antagonist. Landon Liboiron wasn’t a good casting decision. Definitely not gritty enough for that role. Another thing that would have made this better would have been a grittier look. It was “too clean” looking. The angle with Demi Moore was wasted as well. It was a good watch, but it could have been much, much better.
Okay, yes super predictable plot. It's a Western. They're all super predictable plots. The writing could've been better. Almost all westerns could have better writing. The last time I saw a Western with amazing writing was John Wayne in "The Cowboys". Like "The Cowboys" there's a twist at the end, a tiny bit unpredictable. Pretty sure it's been done before, but decent nonetheless. Not as big as the plot twist in the movie I mentioned, but a nice kick. That being said, for a Western, this is well acted, maybe a little dry at points. Demi Moore's role is pretty small, but it's a Western and definitely focuses like most on the male side. She's actually kinda a highlight in the movie. Might have been spectacular it they could've focused just a little more on her character. Everything else seems about spot on for a decent western. I don't think it could've been a 9. Westerns have been overdone and always focus too heavily on the standard fair. But solid 8. Really enjoyed it over all.
