Action, mystery, comedy, honorable gunmen and spiteful villains! This Sam Raimi western really packs a punch. It has something unheard in the genre - a gunslinging lady protagonist! (By the way, if you enjoyed that, check out True Grit by the Coen brothers.) It has a young, handsome Russell Crowe as a pacifist priest with a troubled past! It has an even younger Leonardo DiCaprio as a smug revolver-wielding kid with a million dollar smile! It has a cool Native American character! It has Gene Hackman at his most evil! It has a camera angle shooting through a hole blasted into a dude's head! It's got absolutely everything you ever wanted from an over-the-top action western. So enjoy.
