When I saw that Willem Dafoe and Christoph Waltz were starring together in a western, I was interested. Both are great actors and while they do give fine performances, it's not enough to levitate this film above mediocrity.
The story serves well enough to move things along and most are adequate in their roles but the photography is so flat, colours so drained and sets look more like a cheap soap opera than a feature film.
However, if you want nothing more than to kill some time in a forgettable and inoffensive way with western-style vistas and mild gun play, you could do worse... as long as you pay less than a dollar.
5/10.
