A few years back, Tombstone topped my list of the best western movie. The plot, acting and (of course) the OK Corral battle were awesome.
Then, along came Open Range. Beautiful scenery, great acting and probably the best gunslinger showdown in the history of westerns. It’s one of the reasons I have the JL system installed in the xB.
Now, 3:10 To Yuma has once again made me challenge my favorites. This is easily one of the best western movies ever made. It has all the elements of a great western (guns, honor, heroism, guns, cows and oh yeah, guns) along with an awesome storyline and a great cast.
If you needed anymore encouragement to go out and rent it, just remember, it stars Christian Bale. Easily one of the best actors around these days. Do yourself a favor, go rent it. Tonight. If you don’t like it, let me know what you think is better so I can watch those too.
