Blu B It's really not that bad. I get what Jack was going for here. The acting, pacing and editing are half decent. The problems here are the humor just falls flat 95% of the time and the direction really isn't anything special, leaving a lot to be desired. This is trying to be a Rom-Com Western Hybrid which is a really unique idea. When this focuses on Moon's former gang and all it falls very flat and kills a lot of the momentum this builds up. When it just focuses on the two leads romance it's actually kind of good and the best parts. They got half decent chemistry and there quirky off kilter relationship works. The core scrpt here is good but someone needed to tell Jack to have the humor be looked at by a more trained comedic writer on top of stronger direction. Everything is pretty basic camerawise, production, sets, etc. This REALLY could've benefitted from the touch of someone like Hal Ashby as this seemed right up his alley. Also, Jack's comedic efforts here come off at times as more bizarre than flat. It's kind of like Al Pacino in Jack & Jill if that makes sense where it's so out of place and bizarre. But when he is just normal especially with Julia, he's the Jack we know. This starts off very messy and it takes quite a bit of time to get past the bizarre flat humor. Anyone who is a die hard fan of Jack or really off kilter deep cut Westerns may want to check this out. This is a candidate for a remake 100% that would work in the right hands.

Permit me to discuss how, Cyber Genie Hack Pro team assisted me in getting my forgotten crypto wallet access back. Losing access to my wallet was traumatizing and heartbreaking to my household because it was a joint wallet where I and my partner decided to save for the future instead of using all these ridiculous financial banks in the USA controlled by the Matrix.  Our precious crypto savings were on the verge of vanishing before our very before. If there is one thing I am forever grateful for in 2024 is my encounter with Cyber Genie's team. These guys didn't even let me explain my task fully, how they delved into getting solutions for me to access my crypto wallet back still wows me and my partner. There's no better way to start the new year than with the best tech team ensuring my family's data are safe on the internet.

I am not sure if it is a comedy or a dramady but man it is hard to watch. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A minor Western that's very laid back, but doesn't really add up to much. Notable as one of the three films Jack Nicholson directed; also Mary Steenburgen's screen debut. John Belushi and Danny DeVito have minor roles. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Jack Nicholson directed himself in this parody western that boasted support from Mary Steenburgen, Christopher Lloyd, Danny DeVito, Veronica Cartwright, and John Belushi. Nicholson plays an outlaw about to be hanged for rustling. A law in the town says he can be saved from death if a woman agrees to marry him. A woman volunteers, but what she really wants is a man to help her dig for gold on her property. It's fun watching the actors, but I wish Jack's outlaw was more worthy of us cheering him on, or at least justifying his predicament. But many of the madcap silliness and jokes go nowhere and the film had me checking my watch more often than I should have.
