Short Description:

Remake of the 1957 movie, staring Russel Crowe.

------------------------------------------------------

Review:

First of all let me say I really enjoyed this movie even though Russell Crowe is not my ideal cowboy (Clint Eastwood being my Cowboy idol). Story line is simple. A small-time rancher agrees to hold a captured outlaw who's awaiting a train to go to court in Yuma. A battle of wills ensues as the outlaw tries to psych out the rancher. Russell Crowe and Christan Bale are excellent. I would recommend this if it's still out if not wait until it comes out on DVD.

------------------------------------------------------

Good:

Gritty Western with great atmosphere.

------------------------------------------------------

Bad:

The Ending is a bit lame.

------------------------------------------------------

Verdict:

7.5/10

Rating: 7/10

I remember watching the original in black and white with Glenn Ford. Might have to take a peek at the re-make just to bring back the memories

I have to agree with the ending, bit lame.

Just finished watching the film tonight and I have to say this is one of my favourite movies this year. I have to admit that this hasn't been a classic year for movies. Some movies I've been looking forward to most have disappointed, Spider-Man 3 for instance.

But 3:10 to Yuma was fantastic. I don't see what was so wrong with the ending. In terms of westerns I put this up there with other modern westerns classics such as Unforgiven and Open Range (if you haven't seen it, remedy that now).
