Brief Summary - Gold loving, body snatching aliens land near a desolate town named Absolution in 1875. Unfortunately [for the aliens] a few brazen Cowboys and Native Indians refuse to surrender quietly!
Rating - on a scale of 1 - 10 this sci-fi/western gets a 6.5 !
Movie Strengths - Daniel Craig is his usual barbaric spirited self, gangs of gun-slinging bounty hunters and spear wielding, trigger happy native Indians provide moderate action.
Movie Weaknesses -very subdued performance by Harrison Ford, cowardly aliens, mediocre story telling, non-existent scare factor, flaccid suspense.
Final Thoughts - I expected this movie to be an action masterpiece with Directors such as Spielberg and Favreau I had really high hopes and although I was not thoroughly disappointed I desperately wanted more than this movie offered!
