The Gambler, The Girl and The Gunslinger (2009)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Good movie but grossly overrated

Fantastic!

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I thought it was well acted with Dean Cain playing his character with flair and elan. I can only believe that the people who gave it bad ratings either were looking for a lot of blood and guts without much of a plot or didn't like a mellower type of western. Although I did think the end was anticlimactic and did reduce my rating level. Sure some of the results in the movie were very predictable but were still done well. This movie did show that turkeys are meant to be eaten and not let go (white turkeys are not wild birds but farm raised). The biggest visual flaw I saw was the 1866 Yellow boy rifle. The Civil War was still on so this rifle did not exist except as an idea.

from the title i assumed that it would be another typical western film. well i was not sure whether it can deliver a good story or a good movie as a whole. but as the story progresses the landscape and the location takes me away. i say screenplay is good but the location is awesome. heads off to the actors cause its the fluent acting that made this film a nice thing to watch. dean cain rocks man! he is the jewel of the film. its a gr8 script with two lead characters completely opposite of each other. both are excellent man in different ways, with a good heart.the widow allison is a perfect mix of beauty and love. this film although having a simple story gives the audience some nice moments to remember. it could have been better but in its own way its a good movie and i liked it.

You just know that when the 2 guys meet, despite the animosity between them, they shall ultimately become friends especially when there is a threat by Emperor Maximillian's army and other renegades towards them.A well dressed drifter roams into town and gets land thanks to a win in a card game. He is the gambler.The guy loves a widow, but her husband has been dead for three years now and our guy hesitates in proposing, instead offering all kinds of excuses not to wed her. After all, Jim, her deceased husband, was his friend. Apparently, the girl has been waiting 3 years for our guy to ask so we can imagine the marriage she had with Jim.In Mel Brooks' film of 1974, "Blazing Saddles," a line was stated that never in the history of motion pictures has the cavalry ever been too late. While this is true here, the ending is quite silly and if anything, detracts from the movie itself.

Dean Cain surprised me. The star of Lois & Clark is almost unrecognizable here, but that's fine as he fit right in with the proceedings. The comedy is subtle, but there's a lot of it! Alison Hossack is a new actress to me, and she nailed her role of the neighboring ranch owner who has a crush on the Gunslinger, played by James Tupper.The invading protagonists could have been handled a bit better, but I can somewhat overlook that because the story was not really about them. The budget was apparent in some of the explosions.The scenery was great, the sets and props excellent, and a pesky rain was noticed in about half of the picture. The star of this movie was the witty script and dialog between the stars!I was well entertained! 9 out of 10.
