You go over an hour and a half before you know why Pierce Brosnan is being pursued by Liam Neeson. The latter comes off as a vicious killer, killing his own people along the way.
This is a post-civil war western. Believe me, the westerns they made in the 1950s were far superior to this long and often boring cat and mouse chasing scene.
The picture has beautiful cinematography going for it. Unfortunately, that's about it. It becomes a wild shooting spree. What is the purpose of Anjelica Huston's bit-part as a lady with tonics at the end? Has Miss Huston's career gone that far downhill that she has to subject her acting talents to this junk?
After all that goes on, the two guys walk away in the end. This is another Duel in the Sun without the deaths in the end.
A major disappointment. Liam Neeson, "Since Schindler's List," your career has taken a dive by a series of miserable films. Ditto for Brosnan. Get him back as 007. "The Matador" and this other bomb will not help.
