User Reviews

excellent!

When comparing The Gunman to other Independent films, this one stands out as one of the best.

Taking on tough themes like God, justice, and vigilantism is never easy and should be applauded when it is done in such an excellent fashion as writer/director Daniel Millican has accomplished.

Mimi Rogers and Brian McNamara performances were quite good with a powerful monologue by Mimi at the end.

A great film and a great story.

I look forward to Daniel's next project.
