Strange treatment of property in the story
Liam Neeson owns all the horses that the group rides. One guy finds a wanted criminal and decides to leave the group. To retaliate the Neeson character shoots the horse. Totally unnecessary. He could have just reclaimed the horse and brought it along. Especially since later on he loses his own horse. It would have come in very handy.
The Angelica Huston character makes a deal with the Pierce Brosnan character. She gives him a bullet in exchange for his horse and says she will throw in a bottle of the rum elixir, even though he previously said he didn't want it. But still after he has walked away she throws it after it and it breaks into pieces on the ground. So unnecessary to destroy it.
