This remake of a classic Western improves on the original, thanks to fiery performances from Russell Crowe and Christian Bale as well as sharp direction from James Mangold.

The Spectator

Both dull and deeply unnecessary; a stinker.

It is part of the richness of 3.10 to Yuma that this is a classical piece of storytelling with themes and characters that can be found in the very earliest Westerns.

[I]f you're looking for an Unforgiven-style reinvention of the Western, prepare for disappointment.

Epoch Times

The filmmakers take a huge chance by altering the original’s final scene and it doesn’t quite work but neither is it a sellout. Even those who’ve never seen the first will find glaring contradictions yet no one will be able to discount its searing impact.

Rated: 4/5

It’s a brutal film about brutal people on the frontier, where even the “good guys” are often thugs in it for the money ...

I really enjoyed the way the characters of outlaw Ben Wade (Russell Crowe) and rancher Dan Evans (Christian Bale) progressed through the movie. At first Wade was more ruthless than compassionate but by the end was very sympathetic and respectful of Evans. Conversely, Evans started out very meek and not respected by his son but through his experiences dealing with Wade, developed character and a toughness. This becomes most evident toward the end of the movie as Evans is successful battling the outlaws to get Wade onto the prison train. In the process, Dan Evans gains both the respect of his son and Ben Wade. The final scene of this movie was both gut wrenching and heartwarming. I think this is the best work both of these actors have ever done.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great performances by the actors, albeit a bit over the top, great look and sound. But there are so many shoot-out scenes where people just blindly run into gun fire. It feels like a video game at times. I think if the action scenes were treated with bit more grounded reality, this woulda been an all time classic.

What struck me most about this film was its exploration of themes such as justice versus evil and the impact of traditional ways of life. It challenges viewers to consider what progress means and at what cost it comes. This film will hopefully influence people to be remember our actions in this life are legendary marks we are leaving beefing for our loved one’s. If you haven’t seen this movie yet I highly recommend it for your next movie night! It’s not just a Western; it’s an experience that stays will you long after viewing. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts if you decide to watch it! I really enjoyed watching Russell Crowe and Christian Bale on this movie together. Best regards, Rspsherlock-
