User Reviews

A typical production direct to DVD rental market

Any movie with Michael Madsen in it is a trademark of B-movie (B=Bad), definitely with poor screenplay, killing-me-over-and-over horrible deadbeat dialog, loose and stupid scenario/plot, mediocre or extremely bad directing, entry-level actors with poor or non-exist acting talent. This movie is no exception. Actors who acted in this movie always gave me an impression that they've suddenly forgotten their dialog, every word came up two second slow. Their performances were just too forced to look convincing. The costumes they wore were too modern, trying very hard to look cool. The gunfights in this movie also looked pretty phony too, especially when shot a guy with 5 shots overkill, no wonder the gun fighting scenes were littered so many brass shells. The gun powder blasts also sounded pretty unreal. The worst flaws of modern western B-movies were all included in this typically dragging one, i.e., everything looked just so unconvincingly unreal and tasteless like chewing a piece of cork.
