The Harder They Fall

A wild bunch of good, bad and ugly outlaws fight over a few more than a fistful of dollars with true grit, before, after and during high noon, saddles ablaze with nothing to dodge, magnificent as many times as you like, wherever you decide to search, on any number of trains to Yuma, along as many red rivers as you can trace, stagecoaches at the ready, with Winchesters drawn, pistols locked, cocked and loaded.

Great performances and direction in a genre that had lost its momentum and mojo over the years, but as seen here, can still surprise and engage, with not too much variation from an overcooked theme.

Great casting and performances. Excellent sets, landscapes, costumes, shots and cinematography. But the 139 min runtime dragged on forever with the not-as-big plot, slow pacing and dragged out and unnecessary scenes. Then trying too hard to add the Tarantino flare was cringeworthy. The entire story lacked depth, and chose style over substance. Tons of action, bullets and blood, with a story that could've been told in 90 mins top. What was worse were the musical numbers and loud, overbearing and unfitting rasta music (for a wester?), something I'd expect from a B-movie. The ending was the only worthy act. Imo, it was a waste of amazing talent. It's a 6/10 from me.

This movie has so much style that substance is barely required. Yes, there were Black cowboys. Yes, these people existed. But this movie is mostly focused on (a) a ridiculously talented cast, (b) a familiar revenge tale, (c) amazing scenery/cinematography, (d) an absolutely banging soundtrack. By the end, you almost forget how whitewashed (and often boring) Westerns were for 100 years. It is big, bombastic, violent, unapologetic, and sexy as Hell. You may not love it, but you will 100% be entertained.

Love a Western!!! This one was fun graphic and violent!!! The Cinematography was great , If you're a fan of Tarantino check this one out.same old story good vs Evil but with a 21st century vibe , so if you have Netflix and wanting to find something new to watch check it out.

Original take on the western genre. The story is a pure revenge western style story o on that part no problem. The way it was shot is excellent too as was the editing.

And if you think the score is typical Morricone sound forget it, it's full of music not connected to the genre, the reggae sound being the strangest one. But it all works fine.

Effects are great too, the red stuff is there but the only thing that I thought was why does it has to be so long. Over 2 hours and that shows in the middle part. It falls downwards in speed for over half an hour.

Still, an excellent cast and one funny statement, it's a white town... you will see what I mean. Great western.
