Content with copying rather than bringing something new to the table.

A pale imitation of the Pale Rider sub-genre of Westerns, this modern version does have one endearing original touch

...one can't help but appreciate the inclusion of several entertaining and downright brutal acts of violence - one particularly hapless baddie receives a point-blank shotgun blast to the face...

This movie is about a Indian reservation that has been taken over by a town bully who has ties to organized crime and his thugs. A tequila drinking, Bible reading stranger rolls into town on a motorcycle and helps the town resist the bully and his henchmen. While we never know much about the stranger, this is an excellent movie about retribution that is very satisfying to watch.

A good stranger cleans up small town action western movie but with a Bible quoting twist. Better than the normal efforts, with some good direction from main star Dolph Lundgren as well. Enjoyable.

Pretty much Walking Tall but with indians, and the casino hasn't been built yet. Would get at least another half star had they bothered to give the main character a back story. That was particularly annoying when one of the antagonists expresses "I thought you were dead!" shock.

This movie would get more point if it had been a better movie. I know what you're thinking: "Duh!" but, you know, clearly this realization didn't occur to Dolph.
