Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

cogenerate I wanted very badly to love this movie and it was mostly good. But the main character portrayed by Sharon Stone was simply not believable. And not for any type of sexist reason. I could totally get behind the character itself, it was the acting that continuously broke the immersion for me. While the rest of the actors did a fine job of portraying their characters to the point that I forgot they were actors, multiple times I found myself thinking "this really isn't Sharon Stone's best performance". It just felt like she was trying too hard.

capone666 The Quick and the DeadWomen have showdowns everyday but instead of pistols they shoot glares at each other.Unfortunately, the female in this western will have to use something a little less subtle.In Redemption for the quick draw competition, the Lady (Sharon Stone) attracts the attention of the corrupt organizer (Gene Hackman) and his participants: an imprisoned preacher (Russell Crowe), a kid (Leonardo DiCaprio) with something to prove and a hired gun (Keith David).As the ranks thin, she draws closer to her true goal: killing the man who forced her to shoot her father (Gary Sinise).A visually striking oater with rapid-fire pacing and colorful characters, director Sam Raimi brings his frenetic style to the usually static Wild West showdown with eye-popping results. This energy is even enough to make up for miscasting Stone in the lead.Incidentally, like golf, ladies got to fire at their dueling opponents from the women's tee.Green Lightvidiotreviews.blogspot.ca

carbuff I like odd, kinda weird movies, and this is an odd, kinda weird movie, but it was only decent, not exceptional. The characters were unusual and definitely ahistorical, but it wasn't supposed to be anything other than an offbeat fantasy western, so that was just fine; unfortunately the characters were not only eccentric, but also pretty much flat as a board in terms of character development. It was nearly impossible to really care about anybody in this movie, and it just highlighted the fact that Sharon Stone, while beautiful, is nothing special as an actress. The plot is also, on the whole, very predictable. I really, really do wish though that after DiCaprio went down in this movie it had been just a touch more real and he had never gotten up again--then I wouldn't still be suffering with the rest of his career both on and off the screen. Overall, you might want to watch it because it's different, done well enough, and not too long, but you're not really missing much either if you don't bother with it.

Erik Nonya Bad movie, waste of video, won't get the time back that I spent watching it. Mistook it for the Quick and the Dead by Sam Elliot(GREAT movie). The only bright light is that DiCaprio isn't doing awful movies like this one anymore.Being a fan of more realistic movies I am glad that other choices exist. In the age of re-writing history and attempting to inject ideals into the past that would have destroyed the past, this movie is a sad example of that.If the "Old West" would have indeed been like this movie portrays, we wouldn't have lasted to 1900. This movie should have been built around a different time era. That might have been able to make this movie watchable.
