A fantastic Western!

Rating: 9/10 (11 January 2008)

Absolutely brilliant!!...the best western I've seen since Proposition. Although the movie is a remake, the director does a wonderful job handling Hollywood's great Russel Crowe and the enormously talented Bale.
The story is simple, but the characters just take control. Crowe plays his negative character with grace, gaining the viewer's respect as a famous outlaw. Bale is convincing as always, using his expressions to add depth to his struggling yet brave character. Ben Foster also delivers a fine performance as a menacing and loyal partner to Wade. All his scenes were top notch...he is a star in the making!
A great movie for all western fans, worth traveling to Yuma for!
