Very bad. The title is wrong. It looks like it's shot in in a children's theme park. Doesn't feel good at all. Waste of time

This Oklahoma western had a cool premise with the Rufus Buck gang...and the writing almost did it, but the acting was baaaad.

Tim Abell carries this well directed western as Deputy US Marshal Heck Thomas, delivering his best performance yet as a kick mass, no nonsense lawman. Newcomer Charlie Townsend sells it soundly as outlaw Rufus Buck and it was good to get a cameo from Robert Carradine(The Long Riders). Production value was excellent and director Paul G. Volk told an interesting story based on true events, with style and inventiveness. A great adventure, with solid good guys, and despicable bad guys. Well worth a look!

Common Sense Media

In other words, it's literally a modern retelling of 1915's Birth of a Nation, a film that inaugurated the depiction of Black men as criminal, violent, and sexually deviant, but without meaning to be.

Culture Mix

Everything about this shoddily made Western reeks of amateurish filmmaking. It's also a terrible depiction of a half-Black/half-Native American gang on a racist rampage against white people, with horribly acted scenes pretending to be historically true.

Spectrum Culture

A Western captured with dimension-deprived scope that suggests little thought was put into or budget aimed toward the sort of visual language we usually attribute to the genre.

With it's stellar cast, agile direction and a story based on real events, the film presents itself as a cinematographic journey set for the lovers of westerns and film in general. [Full review in Spanish]
