3 stars (Good Enough) Most rate it high but the plot's weak - the Battle of Algiers is vastly better. This new slow western-style movie was made in a Moroccan desert not as empty as it seemed - with plantations and dense sheep tracks. But Viggo was good and it's worth seeing ~Sandy
4 stars (Very Good) ~Regando
3 stars (Good Enough) The screenplay is okay but it lags somewhat behind the shooting locations as the main attraction. ~Tubbs
