The Gundown (2011) 5/10

Starring : Peter Coyote, William Shockley, Andrew W Walker, Sheree J Wilson
Director : Dustin Rikert
Running Time : 97 mins

Gun for hire Cole Brandt (Walker) finds himself in the lawless town of Dead River where he is hired to protect a bar called The Majestic Saloon, but when Brandt falls for a local prostitute the job he’s been charged with takes a much more personal turn.

This was possibly the most half-hearted attempt at making a Western I have ever seen. This not only felt like a TV movie, but the poor casting – including a woman whose face looked like it was entirely made of plastic – and the shaky plot made this nothing more than a let down, especially considering how good recent Western’s have been.
