Movie Reviews of 3:10 to Yuma [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Very Underrated Movie
Summary: 4 Stars

3:10 to Yuma is a great update to the classic movie with Glen Ford. It stars Christian Bale as Dan Evans, a Civil War vet that's trying to farm his land with one leg and no water. He volunteers to escort a bandit named Ben Wade, played wonderfully by Russell Crowe, across Arizona and make sure he gets put on the 3:10 prison train to Yuma.

While that basic set up doesn't seem like it necessarily would make a great movie, the writing makes up for what looks like it could be a bare bones plot. Along the way Wade's gang catches up to Evans and the other members of the posse, leading to some extremely great chase scenes with plenty of violence. What makes this movie though is the change in Wade throughout the movie and the interplay between Crowe and Bale.

The Blu Ray transfer of this movie is fantastic. The scenery is incredible. I can't comment on the sound though because I lack a surround sound system.

Movie Review: Solid western, solid story
Summary: 4 Stars

I love it when a re-make comes along and it's actually fun to watch! I have to admit I have never seen the original, so I can't make comparisons, but it was a movie that kept my attention and didn't get wrapped up in special effects or excessive cursing, wow!

The premise of the story, a son who doesn't show much respect for his father and the father that eventually does want that respect and will go to any lengths to prove to his son he is not weak, is different from most of the westerns I've seen and I guess that's why the movie gets a 4 star rating from me.

The locations the film was shot at were very good, looked excellent on blu-ray. My only complaint is like a lot of movies now, you have to turn the volume way up to hear diologue, but when the action starts you have to turn it down or suffer an ear bleed.


Movie Review: Love is reserved....
Summary: 4 Stars

A western has to be of a certain caliber for me to like it and I love the Eastwood Spaghetti Westerns. I really liked this movie, all the characters were very well played and I was invloved with every scene all the time. I rarely buy a movie with all the rental options but I did want to buy this one, GREAT movie.
As the title says, Love is reserved for only close family member and a couple of movies in a life time, while I really like this one, I don't love it.

Movie Review: Best Western Since the Unforgiven
Summary: 4 Stars

I am not typically in to Westerns but I really liked this one. My Favorite All Time was The Unforgiven. This one ranks a close second. It portrays the good in the Bad Man and the weaknesses in The Good Man. The filmmakers put forth a great effort to use Firearms, Trains etc., that were historically accurate. Great Scenery! Very Enjoyable Film!

Movie Review: Western Movie Fan
Summary: 4 Stars

Classic western movie remake with stunning photography in hi definition blu-ray format. Great casting of Bale and Crowe, a surprise guest star performance by Peter Fonda, and the top-notch acting award goes to the movie's "bad dude" portrayed by Ben Forster. I highly recommend this action western. It is a keeper for your blu-ray library.
