Given how good Ed Harris's "Pollock" is I was looking forward to seeing his take on the western, but was very disappointed, even with a strong supporting cast, including genre favourite Lance Henriksen and always interesting Viggo Mortensen. The main weaknesses for me were Jeremy Irons as the bad guy, struggling with an American accent and losing, and Renee Zellweger, miscast as the beautiful and treacherous Allie. Reading that Diane Lane was originally cast in the role confirms that Zellweger wasn't a good alternative choice. The cinematography is good, but the mostly mumbled script never takes off. A missed opportunity. 11 years 3 months ago -

Decent western. Hated Zellweger in it though, both her acting and her character... 12 years 9 months ago
