Movie Reviews of Hombre

Movie Review: Hombre
Summary: 3 Stars

Paul Newman is a half breed brought up by Indians in an unforgiving environment where patience, endurance and serenity count far more than bluster and bravado. Here he helps a mixed bunch of people survive through a hostile environment as they are chased and beaten by some rough characters. Though he appears to be selfish and self-centered, Hombre displays qualities that enable others to survive and not give up easily and where death is only one of many options.

Movie Review: Decent first half, becomes relentlessly stupid in the 2nd half
Summary: 1 Stars

If you like movies which don't make any sense, then you may like Hombre. However, if you prefer movies with logical plots, peopled with characters who behave like real human beings, you may not. There is some good dialogue, and the first half was a good setup for something...but when you find out what it is, you'll wonder why the bad guys couldn't have executed their plan a lot more simply. Add to that the fact that the good guys rarely kill the bad guys who want them dead when they have the chance (I guess we're supposed to think that this makes them "good" when all it makes them is stupid), and that bad guys get gut shot in the desert, have no water, but survive, along with several other totally illogical, impossible or idiotic beats, you'll wish you spent 2 hours doing laundry instead of watching this moronic tripe. Richard Boone is an enjoyable villain, but Newman, with his eastern accent, is unbelievable as a white man who lived most of his life with Apaches.
