3:10 to Yuma

If only the movie was as good as the poster.

Oh well, this was passable. In fact, the second hour was better than the first. But there were so many completely implausible plot developments that I was constantly taken out of my enjoyment. SHR gave up halfway through.

Still, it looked really good. Christian Bale was good as usual and as SHR pointed out, his American accent was better than usual. Russell Crowe was fine and even the doofus ex-boyfriend of Claire from Six Feet Under wasn't too bad.

There were some really fun moments as well. Gun play is fun, you know.

All this remake really did for me though was make me want to see the 1957 original ... and quick.
