    More of a popcorn action-flick set in the wild-west, lacks the brooding atmosphere of a good western. Again, Mithrandir, go watch the Proposition it is one of the best movies this decade.

    scene to give you an idea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUVs...eature=related

    better than classics like Once upon a time in the West, best western ever made.

    That scene didn't do much for me Frag... bit too slow. Not slow as in the intro of Inglorious Bastards slow, but unintrestingly slow.
    Abandon all hope.

    Yeah could have posted something more representative, it's a slow movie mind you. Be a good boy and listen to uncle Fragony, if you like westerns this is one of the best, if not the best ever made. Very raw and realistic (maybe a bit too much for some, it has a truly chilling rape-scene) with a truly haunting soundtrack, fantastic performances, and the real star of the show, the oh so hostile outback of Australia.

    Try Appaloosa. I've enjoyed that one. Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen.
