NCREB Reviews: Cowboys & Aliens

With this review I go, not so, in depth with my experience of Cowboys & Aliens. Does this movie make the grade? *Minor Spoilers*

This movie can only be summed up with the following...




Really? I thought after seeing, what felt like 2 years worth of teasers and trailers, this movie did not even remotely catch my interest.

Knowing this was a Jon Favreau film I went in with somewhat great expectations. Also, with the All-star cast how could this movie fail? It did. This moving moved at a pace that made Syfy movies seem in depth. Where did it go wrong?

I did like Daniel Craig, however. I think he was a very convincing American. To me watching him in this movie, early on, felt like watching Steve McQueen.

The bad. Harrison Ford was horrible. He phoned in his performance and most definitely was up hard for some cash. So on to Olivia Wilde, while sexy, seemed to be so annoying.

***************Spoiler***** When She died I was actually happy, but then...she came back and I was pissed again.*************End of Spoiler********

For me the best characters were some that had only minor parts. Sam Rockwell and Clancy Brown were my favs.

As for the plot? What can I say? It follows typical movie formula and is very predictable.


**********************Spoiler************I mean Gold, really? The aliens wanted gold. Come on!!!******************End of Spoiler*********************


All in all I give this 1.5 outta 5 stars




I mean this movie was so bad that the people right in front of me who had a screaming baby didn't even bother me.

Damn, I expected it to be a solid film.
I like Westerns so I'm going to see it.
Long in depth, overly opinionated reviews are all to common.
Brief, "it's shit", "don't see it", honest reviews with a few good and bad points is much appreciated. Good job.

Aliens’ wanting gold is actually factual; it goes back to the Sumerian texts about the annunaki creating us as slaves to mine the earth for gold. But yea I hope it’s not as bad as you have made it out to be. But thanks for the review.
