SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

martin-dearlove-564-397785 This film is just plain terrible. It has no redeeming features whatsoever. The filming is poor, there's no real plot, the acting is awful, the direction is all over the place, and there's not actually any gunslingers. It's just a shambolic hotch potch of ill defined characters who seem to just appear without explanation or reason. It doesn't even have the fascination of being so bad that it is amusing. A child could have written a more convincing and entertaining story line.I really hope this review persuades you to give this film a miss. It's beyond my comprehension how such a dreadful film ever got made. I can't think of any film I'd rather watch less than this ghastly offering.

Gonzalo Ebbw Well... I was looking for something to watch a boring Sunday night, and I found this movie, which looked good by their cover, so I rented it. The only good thing about it was the fact that the rent was really cheap, otherwise, I would have thrown the DVD player trough the window in the first 10 minutes of this movie. Bad acting, bad direction, awful plot. It was so bad, that it tempted me to go on watching it just to see how bad it would become. The final scene, (the "gunfighting scene"???) was hilarious. The performance of the actors was funny, but that wasn't their purpose. I mean, if you want to waste time in bad amateur acting and special effects... well, I would recommend you any ninja-hong kong-steven seagal movie instead of this, that goes too far away in awfulness.

torrentstorm The flick's real title is "The Gunslingers", although what gunslingers we have here would draw derision.Let's see, let's take the 'gunslinger' description and see how it matches. I have viewed dozens of gunfighting movies, all the way back beginning with the 1960's. I recall how awed I was then with Yul Brynner's "The Magnificent Seven", and that passion for gunfighting movies continued throughout my adolescence, with every single one of Clint Eastwood's, title after title of the Italian "spaghetti" westerns, including all of the Django, Sartana, Gringo,....well, the list is quite long. But compared to this one, those movies WERE movies, cheesy and poorly filmed as most were. There was some plot you could follow, most of the time, and the filming, although perhaps not the best, could be mentally and physically understood and followed.But this one is almost a disgrace to the gunfighting theme. There was no real theme that you could say could be understood. The hero does not join any band. Rather, those that were with him - and you'd have to stretch your imagination a bit to understand who's with who here, everything was a jumping around between scenes, suddenly focusing one character you don't know where it came from, and then another, and another - were not following anybody really. The girl Azumi was seeking revenge for the death of her sister; that was the only thing that stuck to my mind. The rest was a confusing morass of subplots and turns that made no sense.I didn't see any gunslingers, just a bunch of people who shot each other like children in a playground. I didn't know guns when shot sounded like firecrackers. I just wonder who wrote the synopsis of this story, because I must say if this isn't a blatant attempt to dress up one of the worst movies made, I don't know what is.There are no lessons or morals that stand out here, nothing so significant as 'greed doesn't pay' or some-such. Everybody for some reason is after some gold, no one knows why or how that gold got there, and to tell the truth, there was no gold. Just the bad guys holding up some black triangular shiny rock.I'll tell you the ecstasy I felt with this one: I dozed off a couple of times. During those few minutes of blissfully floating in the dark ethereal, it came to me that this is the only ecstasy I will experience during these 90 minutes. But of course if you are in the mood for bad experiences, then you might find 'Ecstasy of Gold' a.k.a. 'The Gunslingers' right up your alley.
