This movie had me hooked.It was like exactly like watching a modern day Western.Jimmy was scary looking & you might almost think of him as a monster until........ Great beginning & Great finish!

Disappointing western pastiche/homage from Australia. Leone’s films spring to mind but not in terms of quality.

The lack of incidental dialogue and detail cannot be attributed to the low budget, couple this with dodgy acting plus zero character development. and this becomes as welcome as a wombat at a wedding, mate.

I usually don't like Westerns but I enjoyed this one! It's not just another Western with a crazy guy wasting bullets, shooting at everything that moves. It has a well conceived history of revenge in the background and the characters are well developed.

"Red Hill" looks like a Western version of Assault on Precinct 13 but instead of a dozen men attacking a police station, there's a single man attacking a town taking his revenge on a dozen men.

There aren't many slow moments in "Red Hill", but even during those moments, there's anything might happen or simply adding more info to the storyline. One thing that I like to see in every movie (and was present in this one), is the bad guy is actually capable of missing the targets as a human being and the main character gets a lot of …
