Bold New Western

Rating: 10/10 (14 October 2007)

This really was a great film that portrays Crowe's acting versatility perfectly. How many actors can you think of that can go from playing a British sea captain to a notorious Western outlaw? Not many. And to credit Christian Bale with the most incredible acting I think I've ever seen out of him. His face managed to capture a multitude of expressions at once, and he successfully acted as a desperate rancher and a hard-ass soldier, both at once.
If you'd like to see a movie with superb acting, great sets, and wonderful screenplay, I strongly recommend 3:10 to Yuma. It made my day.
