Flashback, it's 2013-2014-2015, Woody Harrelson and Liam Hemsworth work together on three of the four "Hunger Games" teen flicks (sorry, that's another story). Somewhere (about 2014) they both see the end coming in this mother lode, so Harrelson (comfortable in his mentor role of "Games") says to ole Blue Eyes, "Hey Liam, you wanna make some easy pocket change?" "You bet, Mitch, uh, Woody". "OK, with your looks and my weirdness let's do a badass Western. The plot is stupid, but that won't matter, real Western fans are all dead anyway, so let's just make a campy teen horror chick flick." "OK, got it!"
And there you have a plausible scenario . . . for where/how this mess evolved. Throw in some continuously garbled dialog, especially from behind a too-bearded Hemsworth and you're left with nonsense . . . save for some good photography, realistic costumes, interesting sets, and decent Western scenery . . . for Greenwood, MS.
Further trouble for the viewer develops as minutes drag into hours (almost two), while the thin cliché of a plot gets more bizarre as it turns into Take-Your-Wooable-Wife-To-Work-Day at the local Texas Rangers. Gimme a break.
Stupid is as stupid does. If this is your cup of violence and gore, then go for it, but a note to the three other real Western fans still alive out there, stay away, stay very far away.
