About
You may like this if you want a bleak, violent revenge Western with murky morality and harsh tension, somewhat in the vein of Soldier Blue or Revenge; Not for you if you want uplifting heroes or a gentler tone.
Pros: grim tension; strong lead performances; intense, violent action | Cons: thin characters; uneven pacing; dubious romance angle
