3:10 to Yuma (2007) review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 09/17/12
Dan Evans (Christian Bale) together with his two sons witnesses Ben Wade (Russell Crowe) and his gang steal. Ben eventually gets captured and will be brought to the train while Evans assists for $200. Dan wants to redeem himself for his family while Ben has another side from the killer reputation. Awesome western with great screenplay and authentic gun action. Best lines: Ben - "It's man's nature to take what he wants. That's how we're born." "Don't muddy the past in the present, Dan." Dan - "Someday when you walk in my shoes you might understand." A character driven picture about doing the right thing. Only knack this reviewer noticed is the length and minute dull moments. Performances from Bale and Crowe were superb. Special features were decent with cast/director interviews, behind the scenes footage's and more. 3:10 to Yuma is a a wonderful film about integrity, maturation, sacrifice, heroism and inner goodness.
