This film start with a woman "Jocelyn" listening to two men talking, and she went away with a horse scene! As turnout, this film is about a man "Billy" need to save Jocelyn by killing the Callahan family! Entire film full of boring conversation, and annoying overuse scene! Such as, overuse of the walking scene, overuse of the searching scene, overuse of the arguing scene, overuse of the kissing scene, overuse of the calling names scene, overuse of the staring scene, overuse of the drinking scene, overuse of the blackout scene, overuse of the riding horse scene, overuse of the sleeping scene, overuse of the hiding scene, and overuse of the holding gun scene! Make the film unwatchable! The only intensity of the film is the explosion scene! At the end, Billy killing the Callahan family and save Jocelyn! That's it! Wasting time to watch!

Brock Harris gave a good performance as the strong silent cowboy type. There were some really terrific character actors that gave the story a western feel. The leading lady was young and pretty and, unlike some westerns, she didn't look like she just came out of a Beverly Hills salon. Her romance with the main character was sweet and restrained. The great Bruce Dern unfortunately has grown too old to seem dangerous as the bad guy. The story lacked a central seemingly unstoppable bad guy that is so essential to a western. I would have thought that Cam Gigandet, who is a fine actor, would have filled that role, but unfortunately he disappears after the start of the film and only reappears at the end and offers virtually no opposition to the main character. The final victory is too easy for the good guys and anti-climactic. We never feel the tension of their extreme jeopardy which eliminates much of the suspense. I don't think a single good guy was killed at the final shootout despite being outnumbered. The locations, buildings, and structures had a rugged authentic look but the film was shot in virtually the same location throughout, with little variety as to exterior or interior shots. The younger brother played by Michael Welch had a terrible part written for him, spending the entire film whining about getting his wayward bride back, again and again and again. In virtually every one of his scenes. I love westerns. I found this watchable but a little below average.

Very traditional set up. Villainous bad guy has the girl. The hero swoops in and saves her with a shoot out that should be an obvious loss. But because the hero and those protecting the girl are the good guys, they win. The violence is rather implied most of the time, meaning it gets a preteen friendly rating. As well just a tiny kiss or 2 occurs. Nothing overtly sexual or swearing occurs really. Sometimes a stuffy white guy uses a slur of "squaw". If you want a western romance that is pretty clean cut to watch with no big name actors to mess up the show. Here you go. It does have a low budget feel to it. But you get what you pay for.

Saying this film is full of clichés doesn't do it justice. Everything that happens in this movie you've seen before but in much better films. This movie really couldn't really figure out what it wanted to be. A very underdeveloped romance that doesn't make much sense. They barely know each other and literally spend no time alone together. Am I over-thinking it? Possibly. The acting was hit or miss, mostly miss. The main girl really stands out but in a bad way. Apparently she is a former beauty queen trying her hand at acting but she is downright terrible in this film. At least the guy who played Billy Tyson was nice to look at, so it has that going for it and what on Earth was Bruce Dern doing in this stinker? Give this film a pass.

Film is full of old western cliches. Dialogue is so cheesy! I was just shakin' my head throughout the movie. Avoid this film at all costs. I can't believe I spent money to see this!

At the first confrontation with the running bride, about 10:00 in you can see a red laser on the heros shirt lol. Going to watch the rest and give it an actual star rating as I'm gonna give it a chance. Sure it won't be Shane or Open Range at this point l.

One reviewer comments on powerlines in the shot at 31:59. All I want to know is how that person made it that far through the movie. Apparently my review needs to contain 150 characters so...like the movie running 1:26 I'll just keep dragging you along.

At 31:59 you can clearly see 3 electricity transmission towers in the distance. These could easily have been edited out, or the shot taken from a different angle.

I'm surprised that costumer do not research the history of the west. This film on a scale of 10 is 0. The costumes are are wrong and saying so, what about the white hat's which they did not have in the west. Stetson hat company at that time produced black hats after the Civil war and through out the rest of the 1800's. I really am amazed at the lack of research done buy costumers that have no idea about western Americana. If you look at older westerns they all have the " Hollywood" look John Ford is a good example of what people like in a John Wayne western, even though it was Hollwood style! I like the look of the old west, where the people had shirts to the neck because of of lice and ticks that got into the shirts coats and everything else they wore! Not like a show like this everyone is so clean and no breakdown on anything worn. Do your research! Lee Sollenberger cowboy/ costumer 50 years.

Plot drowning in cliches, dreadful dialog, bad acting. Amazon should yank this. Worst movie in memory I can recall seeing. Awful, awful, awful. Don't waste your time.
