Jericho (Mark Valley) wakes up with no memory, but it's apparent that he's quite skilled with a gun. He is befriended by Joshua (Leon Coffee), who appears to be his polar opposite: He's a black man and true believer in the Lord, whereas Jericho is white and doubtful of everything, especially himself. Side by side, they attempt to piece together the amnesiac's past, which may or may not have something to do with a robbery, and either way is somehow connected to a town that's also called Jericho.

Audience Member Basically, a softer retelling of the movie Unforgiven and it should have been titled Unnecessary. I decided to watch it because it was a 2001 western I'd never heard of but this is more like a 1981 western and not a good one. It's like... if the Lifetime network tried to make a gritty western. It's truly one of the worst, if not the worst, westerns I've ever sat through and the blatant Unforgiven impersonation made it that much worse. The ending... had absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the movie. I've never seen an ending this stupid. I can't believe this had a wide theatrical release. 1 of 5 Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Frances H Boring, cheaply made-for-TV western that I couldn't find the interest to finish. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/17/15 Full Review Audience Member A decent Western that takes on the themes of redemption and justice but with a major twist at the end. The movie is enjoyable if you don't mind its slow plot and simple themes. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member It's not as tightly directed as it could have been, which results in the slightly meandering story. There are so many unnecessary scenes that add nothing to the plot. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
