Cardboard cutouts

Rating: 5/10 (25 January 2007)

Watched this movie for the first time last night.
I found it over the top in places (i.e. the cast on horses with the mounties on the ridge line before the arrest on the border), and the characters were cardboard cutouts....the bad guy (in the white suit), the loving wife, the hoary old sidekick, the young gun...etc. etc.
A couple of good scenes though - i.e. the pram.
I thought Sean Connery and De Niro (although he had little to do) were OK, but thought most of the other cast struggled with the lack of depth in the script.
Very average.
