Mark C How did this get made? D Grade Cowboy John Wick with absurd acting and plot. Ethan Hawke and John Travolta must be broke. It truly is terrible Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/11/24 Full Review Nathaniel S I rented it for $4 on Prime Video. It was worth the $4. Was it a great movie? Hell no, but it was worth the $4. I love Ethan Hawke. He was fabulous in “Training Day” and I just saw him in “Adopt A Highway” which I bought because I really liked the movie. There is absolutely nothing in this movie that is unique or hasn’t been done before. I wasn’t ever really bored or anything, it’s just that I knew what was going to happen before it ever happened. I’m also a sap for any movie with a dog as a friend in it. See “Fallout”, “John Wick”, and especially Don Johnson in “A Boy And His Dog”. The movie felt like it was written by someone in high school from another country, who saw a few Westerns, and thought they could write a great story. “Unforgiven” and “High Plains Drifter” it ain’t. The dialogue was really amateurish and unbelievable, as was the story. I really liked the musical theme in the beginning and ending. The movie was kinda like an In And Out burger. Good deal for the price but not as good as an expensive 5 Guys burger. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/27/24 Full Review Shane K Is the plot good, no. Is the acting good, absolutely not. Is the cinematography good, not really. Is the musical score good, standard for a low quality western. I liked Ethan Hawke in The Purge and he's ok in this, Travolta is ok to but that can't help this terrible film. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/18/24 Full Review Haydon F A western take on the basic Jhon wick, someone killed my dog plot. The plot is mediocre. The story is poorly paced which resulted in there being no cut through edge which left the entire movie feeling empty. There were moments of enjoyment for me; however, they were short lived, juxtaposed with gratuitous dialogue befitting of a slapstick comedy. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/21/24 Full Review Dee S This feels more like an ensemble show at the "Western" themed part of an amusement park than an actual movie. The dialog is bufoonish, the script a series of spaghetti western clichés and not in a good way, and some of the performances were execrable. In particular, James Ransone's acting is barely fit for community theater. His character constantly insults another for being fat, but the irony is that Ransone doesn't just chew the scenery he swallows it whole. I enjoyed the musical score and the dog was cute. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/24 Full Review Kandy A Classic western, I really liked it. Ethan Hawke and John Travolta were fantastic in the roles of bad guying trying to be good vs. bad guy pretending to be good. The supporting cast were great as well. Original story line. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews
