Howdy everyone,
All of you need to get out and see "Open Range." It is an absolutely phenominal movie...this is the kind of movie that I had thought Kevin Costner would be bringing us after Dances with Wolves--you know, like well written and stuff. Well, he's certainly been hit and miss in the last few years, but this is his best role. Robert Duvall is awesome as always. It's a little slow to take off, but it actually paints some very interesting, multi-dimensional characters whom you actually feel like could exist. Oh, and without giving anything away, the shot that opens the gunfight at the end of the movie had to whole theater break out in applause...and sustained applause!You'll like the people, and won't cringe at the dialogue. Go see it. :)
 
YEEE-HAW.

I need to see this

By the way--if you want Hollywood to MAKE this type of movie . . . seee it while it's in the theaters. That votes for it. :)

I think I'll go in cowboy garb. :)
 
I was hoping that Costner would get his head out of his butt and do something worth mention. He has more miss than hit in the past. I just hope the sting of his past bombs doesn't taint my enjoyment of his current work.
 
I've heard nothing but good things about this movie from friends. I agree he's had some rough bumps over the last couple of years...however I'm willing to overlook "Waterworld" and "The Postman" and give him a fresh chance.
 
But. I liked Waterworld.

I'm sure I'm the only one . . . but it was nifty.
