Storyline

With the town of Rose Creek under the deadly control of industrialist Bartholomew Bogue, the desperate townspeople employ protection from seven outlaws, bounty hunters, gamblers and hired guns. As they prepare the town for the violent showdown that they know is coming, these seven mercenaries find themselves fighting for more than money.

Trivia

Martin Sensmeier's character name Red Harvest is a homage the Dashiell Hammett story of the same name which Akira Kurosawa borrowed the story for his plot of his other great samurai tale Yojimbo (1961). Kurosawa wrote the movie Seven Samurai (1954) which The Magnificent Seven (1960) is based on. See more »

Goofs

Like most westerns, this film depicts the characters repeatedly "fanning" their revolvers to get off multiple shots very quickly. While it appears to be effective and accurate, for all practical purposes, it is quite the opposite. For one, holding the trigger back and slapping the hammer with the opposite hand (fanning) is very hard on the action of the gun and unless they had a gunsmith custom build their guns to withstand that punishment, they would have broken within a few reloads. Second, the accuracy of fanning from the hip would be horrendous unless one spent countless hours practicing, and even then, to hit multiple targets running and on horseback and while under fire, would be quite a feat indeed.

One Hell of a Ride
19 September 2016 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Finally another great western movie!

To be sure, all the western clichés are found in this movie; and I don't have a problem with that! One of the things I liked best about this western was the pacing, sometimes I find westerns to be a little too slow (for my personal taste - subjective, I know) but I felt this movie nailed it, even with a run time a little over 2 hours.

The action scenes are great, very well done. The casting and acting was great - Denzel does a great job as the leader of this rag tag group of guys. Pratt, of course, nails the comedic relief role.

The movie carried a surprising amount of "heart" throughout it all the way to the end.

Here is the bottom line: Yes, this movie is worth your hard earned money to go see in the theater.
