This is a tragic movie that seems to be a nonsensical comedy

In the middle of the movie, Anna (Charlize Theron) and the hero go to the dance

Liam Neeson as villain Clinch

A masterpiece that looks vulgar in blood, sex, violence, etc.

1. Is this movie vulgar? Absolutely vulgar. Gore, violence, sex, barely concealed foul language and abuse.

2. Is this movie funny? Absolutely hilarious. Even foul language, it sounds like the right kind of swearing.

3. Will this movie teach you about the American West? Yes, a little bit. For those who only know the American West from movies and games, this is a lively and entertaining study material, albeit a bit exaggerated and timeless.

4. Is this movie only the above? No. The second half of the movie elevates it a lot. In the second half of the film, the male lead played by McFarlane is normal. Although he is still foul-mouthed, irritable, and incompetent, he is indeed different from the beginning of the film. He has become a living person, no longer a film character. . He worked hard, he was timid, he ran away, he made up his mind. Until he came back, and returned to town. When I saw his feet step into town and into the camera, I choked a little. He defeated the villain played by Liam Neeson, not by the sharpshooter, but by his wits. If you work hard, you will be rewarded, you will improve yourself, and it will be confirmed at this time. Although he didn't become a sharpshooter, he got cheers and admiration from the whole town, including Anna. If I were 15 years younger, I wouldn't have found this movie funny, maybe I'd be amused by the swear words in the movie for a while, just for a while. But it's different now, and I think he's so real, at least in part.
