I think I will give this one a try tomorrow. It looks good and the reviews have been stellar.

I have to see this. It immediately reminded me of Pat Garret and Billy the Kid, and lo and behold after that thought, Knocking on heavens door plays

I thought it was OK. I give it 2 1/2 stars out of 5. A little slow at times, but worth seeing. Not my favorite Jeff Bridges movie. I thought the guy who played the crazier of the two bank robbing brothers was good. I have enjoyed his acting before, including when he played Clare's boyfriend on Six Feet Under. Sorry, didn't bother looking up his name.

That's him Ivan. I'm a huge fan of the Six Feet Under series, so I recognized him.

We enjoyed it. I was afraid that the wife might not like the language, but she said it was borderline and not excessive. Enjoyed Jeff Bridge's performance and I don't always say that. There was a collective ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that quieted the audience and if you've seen the movie, you know the scene I'm referring to.

I saw this movie over the weekend and thought it was pretty good!

I saw it during its theatrical release. On the one hand I had high expectations based upon pre-reviews. I saw it on its opening weekend. I thought it good, but not as good as expected. But I thought it good enough that its short theatrical run surprised me.

He was quite good in 3:10 to Yuma as well, in another great western.
