It's a Greek western

Rating: Null/10 (7 January 2000)

I don't mean to stereotype George Pan Cosmatos, but I've seen a couple of his other movies too and it seems he likes nothing better than a juggernaut of fate, a chain of events that traps the participants and carries them along through life and into death until it's played itself out, just like a Greek tragedy. That's pretty much what he's done in this film.
As for the awardless Val Kilmer? They say he's not liked as a person. They say he was not nice to his wife, and he walked out on the Batman series when people in the industry were counting on him. Maybe he's no more of a louse than a dozen other highly honored actors, but for some reason, to Val it sticks.
