It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
best movie i've ever seen.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Is it a masterpiece? No. But does it entertain you as a film should? Definitely. The acting is all great, but of course it is with so many fantastic actors. Chris Pratt once again is the stand out star in my opinion. He's his usual hilarious, charming and cool self. They did a great job with the fight scenes, special effects/practical effects and the writing is also really well done. An all around good movie. The only thing I can really fault it for is not having more speaking roles for actresses. Only one susbstantial female role in the whole movie. Other than that is was really good.
A poor and needless remake that ups the body count but not the quality.Inferior in every way to the Bryner/McQueen/Coburn version but probably enjoyable to the Transformers generation
Brutal just brutal to watch. Don't mind a decent western but good Lord. Hopefully movie didn't go over budget. And for the folks who actually paid a ticket... ouch.
(Flash Review)This is the epitome of Hollywood. Take a legendary film, Seven Samurai, dumb it way down, crank the action to ten, make each character a unique stereotype and scribble a shallow story. Yet the result is fun when mentally prepared. For those unfamiliar with Seven Samurai, a small town hires a skilled samurai to defend their town. Much the same here as a skilled bounty hunter, Denzel, is hired to save them from a murdering gang threatening to take their land. Much of the movie is the recruitment as Denzel over-easily convinces six more guys to aid him. Will they be able to save the townsfolk and their land? I felt Chris Pratt was miscast. I like him but I never believed his personality type ever existed in a Western era. While the action was fun and relentless at times, it was manic for a Western. Peter Sarsgaard always plays a great villain and he did again. Overall, this is a mildly and mindless entertaining hyper-action 'Western'.
