mark g @Mark_Alan_G. 07/09/2024 Let me preface my review by saying I worship Dwight Yoakam. Have every record he has ever done. Have enjoyed him in countless films. However, this thing was awful! I mean, tedious, pointless, awful. I guess sometimes it must appear easy to do a Western, but this film proves without doubt, it ain't. What a waste of some decent acting talent that were doing Dwight a favor. I actually bought the soundtrack before seeing film, not good either. Should have been a sign.

I can say 2 good things about the movie. First, it was good to recognize some of the actors. Second, because I saw the movie on TV, some of the commercials were ok.

Dommage qu'elles soient noyées dans un océan de dialogues inintéressants, mal écrits et une nuée de pistes totalement oubliées moins de dix minutes après les avoir lancées. C'est bien dommage car avec un film qui culmine à 130 minutes, on s'attendait à beaucoup plus de matière que de longs plans sur la plaine ouest-américaine avec des personnages qui n'ont aucune origine, aucun futur et aucune complexité. Dwight Yoakam ne semble pas avoir les épaules pour tenir le film et c'est plutôt Vince Vaughn ou Luke Askew qui sont très bons. Malheureusement pour le film, ils disparaissent pendant près d'une heure au milieu... Le score est très bon. See more 04/03/2015 Offbeat and a Uniquely designed Western! See more 12/05/2014 I guess sissy is a little excited that you're here. Valentine Casey is a lawman in the west somewhere near Tucson, Arizona. His family is a band of ruthless outlaws that do as they please. His family unveil some skeletons in Casey's past that he prefer be kept in the closet. There appears to be only one way for Casey to handle his family, but could he really gun down his own blood? "We're like brothers." "Not by blood." Dwight Yoakam delivers South of Heaven, West of Hell in his directorial debut (and only film on his resume). The storyline for this picture is just okay but contains unique and unpredictable characters. The settings, make-up/costumes, action, and dialogue were all disappointing. The cast was solid in name only as the cast includes Billy Bob Thornton, Vince Vaughn, Peter Fonda, Bo Hopkins, Bridget Fonda, and Michael Jeter. "You reckon Chinese food is hot? I reckon we'll be eating a lot of that in San Francisco." I DVR'd this picture when I was looking at Peter Fonda films and noticed this amazing cast (kind of a random group of actors). I had never heard of this film so I gave it a shot; unfortunately, this fell a bit flat. It tried to be unique and original but instead was clumsy and disappointing. Overall, I recommend skipping this picture. "You damn bunch of inbred bitches." Grade: D See more Read all reviews
