Bale and even Fonda are also impressive. Not a typical Western, and more a character study than an action flick, it nonetheless offers plenty of action, much of it very brutal. Full of interesting characters, this one is sure to be a classic. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Read MoreGreat performances from Crowe and Bale as you might expect. But the movie itself felt like a train ride going to an inevitable destination with Bale's character (as the protagonist) experiencing only a whimper of triumph. Crowe's performance was the best part of the movie, but his character's actions in the end weren't very believable. If you love westerns, this is a decent one, but the storyline won't have you on the edge of your seat. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Very Good Movie!! One of the better ones that I have seen in a while. Great acting and the pace is pretty good. Russell Crowe and Christian Bale did great jobs. I will be buying this movie! WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

this was okay; actually better than a lot of westerns, but very predictable. Acting was quite good, though. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I loved this movie. I had all of the elements of a great, old fashioned western. Plus, Russell Crowe is yummy, even though he's bad! I give this movie a thumbs up! WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
