Movie Reviews of 3:10 to Yuma (Full Screen Edition)
Movie Review: Fast Paced, Great Cast, Different Characters Shine in Contrast to the Original
Summary: 4 Stars
A remake of the 1957 film starring Glenn Ford, and in this film, the underdog stars as Christian Bale plays a very realistic almost Christ like character willing to sacrifice himself to avoid the desperate straits of failure that risk his family's well being and to remove any stain of unmanliness falsely assumed by his eldest son. Bale's character is the center of this film as he portrays the proud rancher pushed down by the powerful land baron even though he is a wounded veteran of the Civil War. Russell Crowe is an excellent choice to play the role as the evil but oddly sophisticated and intelligent Ben Wade; however, Crowe is not quite as engaging as Ford. There is an aura of mystery about the Ben Wade character that makes you wonder why this man ever engaged in violent crime. The film is entertaining but a little over the top with special effects that sometimes resemble an Indiana Jones flick, which is a bit more comic book but with no intention of hiding it. The movie has at times too gratuitous violence that is a little unnecessary. The worst part of the film is the ending where the odds are just too stacked to be realistic. In order for an adult western to be great, there has to be a realistic potential for the hero to survive against unreasonable odds to give the viewer a sense that the hero can succeed. The acting is stand out and besides Bale and Crowe, Ben Foster as Charlie Prince, does an excellent portrayal of a character that has little regard for another's life and he adds very volatile edge to the film. You may want to watch Glenn Ford's original for an interesting contrast, there are differences and each has different strengths, Ford stands out in his, Bale in this one.
Summary of 3:10 to Yuma (Full Screen Edition)
In Arizona in the late 1800s infamous outlaw Ben Wade (Crowe) and his vicious gang of thieves and murderers have plagued the Southern Railroad. When Wade is captured Civil War veteran Dan Evans (Bale) struggling to survive on his drought-plagued ranch volunteers to deliver him alive to the "3:10 to Yuma" a train that will take the killer to trial. On the trail Evans and Wade each from very different worlds begin to earn each other's respect. But with Wade's outfit on their trail - and dangers at every turn - the mission soon becomes a violent impossible journey toward each man's destiny.Cast: Russell Crowe Christian Bale Peter Fonda Gretchen Mol Ben FosterDirector: James MangoldSpecial Features: Audio Commentary with Director James Mangold "Destination Yuma" - Making-of Documentary "An Epic Explored" Featurette "Outlaws Gangs and Posses" Featurette Deleted ScenesSystem Requirements:Run Time: 122 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: WESTERN/HEROES Rating: R UPC: 031398221869 Manufacturer No: 22186Here's hoping James Mangold's big, raucous, and ultrabloody remake of 3:10 to Yuma leads some moviegoers to check out Delmer Daves's beautifully lean, half-century-old original. That classic Western spun a tale of captured outlaw Ben Wade (Glenn Ford)--deadly but disarmingly affable--and the small-time rancher and family man, Dan Evans (Van Heflin), desperate enough to accept the job of helping escort the badman to Yuma prison. Wade, knowing that his gang will be along at any moment to spring him, works at persuading the ultimately lone deputy to accept a bribe, turn his back on "duty," and go home safe and rich to his family. That the outlaw has come to admire his captor intriguingly complicates the suspense. All of the above applies in the new 3:10, but it takes a lot more huffing and puffing to get Wade (Russell Crowe this time) and Evans (Christian Bale) into position for the showdown. Mostly, more is less. To Mangold's credit, his movie doesn't traffic in facile irony or postmodern detachment; it aims to be a straight-up Western and deliver the excitement and charisma the genre's fans are starved for. But recognizing that contemporary viewers might be out of touch with the bedrock simplicity and strength of the genre--not to mention its code of honor--Mangold has supplied both Evans and Wade with a plethora of backstory and "motivations." At the overblown action climax, the crossfire of personal agendas is almost as frenetic as the copious gunplay. (By that point the movie has killed more people than the Lincoln County War.) Best thing about the remake is Russell Crowe's Ben Wade, a Scripture-quoting career villain with an artist's eye and a curiously principled sense of whom and when to murder. As his second-in-command, Ben Foster fairly pirouettes at every opportunity to commit mayhem, and Peter Fonda contributes a fierce portrait of an old Wade adversary turned bounty hunter for the Pinkerton detective agency. --Richard T.
