When the most wanted man in America surfaces in a small Kentucky town, his violent history -- and a blood-thirsty mob seeking vengeance and a king's ransom -- soon follow. As brothers face off against one another and bullets tear the town to shreds, this lightning-fast gunslinger makes his enemies pay the ultimate price for their greed. Academy Award-winner Nicolas Cage, Stephen Dorff, and Heather Graham star in an action-packed Western thriller about true justice in the wild west.

Gunslingers is not the finest hour for any actor involved, though they run the gamut from competency to simply being too modern in look and manner to convince in a period setting that already feels like some sort of western cosplay weekend.

.5/4

Only Cage’s most diehard cultists will want to go to bat for this performance, and they could easily struggle to accentuate the positive.

A bargain-brand Western that boasts a few middle-aged stars and a collection of clichés that largely predate the talkie.

A cheaply made western that paid for Nicolas Cage to play second fiddle to Stephen Dorff of all people, who is doing something with his voice here that makes me concerned for his health. This film had no thought put into it, so I’m just trading in kind.

Too often feels like a reenactment the likes of which you'd find at a "Western" tourist attraction. The dialogue is cliche, the action beats feel rote and repetitive, and the costumes all scream "Rentals should be kept clean and are due back by 6pm!"

A film so cobbled together it seems like it was churned out under duress.

My gosh, what can I say!? I don't think that I had ever seen lousier, crappier special effects for gunshot wounds before. The story isn't bad, but the acting is quite horrible, except maybe Stephen Dorff, and the never-ending shootouts with endless bodies which all died after single shots, is so ridiculous that soon it becomes totally boring. Neither Nicolas Cage nor Heather Graham can rescue this worst Western of the last 10 years.

Best line of the movie, "This had to end." This movie was so awful, it almost seemed like a spoof film like the Naked Gun and I am not certain it wasn't. Nicholas Cage's character was ridiculous but you almost looked forward to his lines. This movie was perfect. Perfectly lame.

The best thing in the movie was Heather Graham and she cant act. What in the world has happened to Nicolas Cage? His fake voice even comes across as over acting. Stephen Dorf is a co-producer and stars, but its not his best moment either.
