During Grant's presidency, Jonah Hex is a remorseless bounty hunter. In the Civil War, he was a rebel whose honor put him afoul of a Confederate general, Quentin Turnbull, who murdered Jonah's family while Jonah watched. As a result of the ordeal, Jonah's face is disfigured and he can talk with the dead. After staging his own death, Turnbull, with a group of rebel stalwarts, hatches a plan to bring the Union to its knees. Grant wants Hex to stop it. While the nation readies to celebrate Independence Day, Hex and an unlikely ally have little time to stop Turnbull and his weapon of mass destruction. Written by

Quotes
[first lines]
Jonah Hex:
War and me took to each other real well. It felt like it had meaning. The feeling of doing what you thought was right. But it wasn't. Folks can believe what they like, but eventually a man's gotta decide if he's gonna do what's right. That choice cost me more than I bargained for.

It was fun. Everyone did a competent job. It's not a movie for intellectuals, just for people who enjoy flicks. As more people see it, its rating will go up. It's now 4.3/10 with 1,266 votes. Watch.
I really enjoyed that the special F/X were not overdone.
It's a comic book fer cryin' out loud!, it's not supposed to be No Country for Old Men!
I was never bored, it was well paced.
That whole business with the dead people was fun and nice plot enhancer.
I really don't know what all the negative fuss it about.
It's not a summer blockbuster, it's a summer popcorn and soda, better-than-T.V. techno western flick.
Actually, my expectations were so diminished by all the bad press that I enjoyed it More that I expected I would.
As I read all the detailed bad press and saw what over analysis was in the comments, and discounted all that, that's what put me over the edge to go and see it.
And I'm glad I did.
It was fun.
No one's careers were ruined. Just briskly moving summer fun.
