This is not really a western, it's just set in a western time period...

It's kind of odd really and due to "what it is" I can't say anything more than that without it being a spoiler!

I've found this to be the case with a lot of the recent westerns. Chewy is shorting herself with that anti-western obsession (& crickets). ;)

I should have taken this last post more seriously and go with my first instinct, as this was not that great of a movie. It has a few good moments and the subject should have interested me, but it got too weird (there might be another word more suitable, but that's what hubby kept saying and it stuck in my head, lol). Even Liam Hemsworth could not save that movie. It's not the worst I've ever seen, but my ratings will not go very high on this one.
