6/10


the film started out very well with a serious tone. really reminded me of no country for old men but at the point where jimmy enters the bar and plays a song from the wurlitzer, everything spiraled down. film became increasingly whimsical and reminded me more of i know what u did last summer. music was downright horrible and a mismatch to the film's atmosphere. some scene shots were just plain cheesy like constable shane riding a horse with lightning crashing in the background. i'm wondering whether it was all deliberate or if that's the way it was set out to appear - a cheap B grade flick.

Agree.

It started pretty good i guess but it went to "bajs" when Jimmy got to town, and everything after that was just ridiculous, cliché and extremely obvious.
The moment Jimmy didnt shoot Shane, i knew he was innocent and the townspeople had murdered his wife and given him the burnscars. The action was slow and stupid and there was zero suspense.

I got chocked to see that this movie had a rating over 6. I was sure it wouldnt be any higher than a really low 5, tops.
