Deborah Ross The Spectator Both dull and deeply unnecessary; a stinker. Aug 23, 2018 Full Review Geoffrey Macnab Sight & Sound 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. Jul 6, 2010 Full Review Alonso Duralde MSNBC [I]f you're looking for an Unforgiven-style reinvention of the Western, prepare for disappointment. Rated: 4/5 May 1, 2008 Full Review Michael Clark 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 Sep 18, 2023 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand It’s a brutal film about brutal people on the frontier, where even the “good guys” are often thugs in it for the money ... Sep 8, 2023 Full Review Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies Thanks to James Mangold, Christian Bale, Russell Crowe, and the rest of the cast and crew, 3:10 to Yuma is an epic Western in its own right.

Blu B It's one of best remakes ever made. Furthermore it's one of only a handful where a legitimate arguement could be made and I would have to agree this is the better version which is one heck of an accomplishment. Really good cinematography and music score. The original has a better soundtrack I have to say but this does a great job and does it's own thing well. The direction is really good and the action scenes are really good. Very good acting also. I think one could argue Ford or Bale is better or Van Horn vs Crowe. But I'd have to say I'm split with Crowe and Ford respectively being better. The editing and pacing are excellent here. And where this truly shines is in the changes it makes to the overall story. where the first is a thriller of sorts. This one is much more of a western adventure, faster pacing, more fleshed out characters adding to the main duo, and some changes that I really thought were great twists. It felt like it was doing it's own thing. This really only resembles the 57' one 30% of the time it feels like. The added father/son relationship dynamics and the adventure aspects with other characters really is what puts this one on top. On paper this is a bad idea to try and touch this. But in reality this is lighting in a bottle. Everyone should give this a try once and even the 57' one too. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review shannon b Masterpiece of a movie, led by a generational talent Christian Bale! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/11/25 Full Review Ted B 4.0 stars; This is a classic western. It is an improvement on the original. This is primarily due to the excellent performances from Russell Crowe and Christian Bale. One of my favorite Westerns. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review Patrick M 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 12/28/24 Full Review Matt W 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. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/18/24 Full Review Stephen H One of thee best westerns ever.
