Intense

Great authentic scenery and costumes. Beautiful landscape and horses. Russell Crowe did a great job as a (not so bad) bad guy. And Christian Bale was awesome. Action from start to finish.

Best Ever Modern Western !

I have read a couple of reviews here slamming this movie. Can't think why. Each to his own I suppose, but if you haven't seen this film and are contemplating buying it, do so! For those of you who loved this film in theaters, buy the blu ray and sit back for the same exciting action and superb look in your own living room.

Warning: some spoilers, but none terribly revealing

Russell Crowe is superb as Ben Wade, a famous outlaw featured in the dime westerns of his times. He and his murderous gang wreak havoc until he is finally caught. A crippled former civil war soldier, desperate for money to save his failing ranch, signs on as a volunteer to help escort Wade to the prison train arriving at 3:10 in Yuma. (hence the title of the film) As the clock ticks,the suspense grows, keeping you on the edge of your seat right until the very end. This one isn't easy to predict, which makes watching it so enjoyable. Highly recommended!

one of the five best films of any year

a truly great modern western . you'll either agree or not , and that's fine , but mangold and company did a magnificent job . all else that needs to be said has been said better and more thoroughly by other writers here . strongly recommended .

Great Western

I loved the movie. Everything about it was enjoyable: the scenery, the acting (WOW. Bale and Crowe are great together, awesome chemistry), the plot and YES, the infamous ending. It was suspenseful, I cared about even the minor characters, and I understood the motives throughout the movie. Great action and gunplay.
Yes, there are plotholes. But every movie has them, and I was so caught up while watching it that I just didn't care. I'm not one to pick apart a movie anyway, unless it's an arthouse film. I think it's a great way to spend two hours, and if you love it like I did, you'll watch it again and again and recommend it to your friends.
It has lots to say about the measure of a man, who we are when no one is watching, God, redemption, and the human heart. I won't bother with a summary as so many others have already done that.
Just watch it. If you enjoy good action, good chemistry between co stars, exploring relationships, and a man's need to be a hero, plus suspense and good old fashioned shoot em ups, I think you'll at least like, if not love it !

Not as good as original - but entertaining

While I think the original version of 3:10 to Yuma is a better western, the modern remake is plenty entertaining. Several other reviewers have detailed the plot that this version follows, so I will stick with what I liked and did not like. On the good side...Russell Crowe is great, and the cast that comprise his creepy gang are solid as well. There are many action packed scenes, and the gun fights are good, which all make for a great western. On the flip side...the plot gets pretty complex, and the storyline is hard to follow at times. Like many other reviews, I did not care much for the final scene. The pieces just don't add up into something that makes any sense.

Overall, I recommend 3:10 to Yuma if you are a Western fan. It is worth watching, although I think the original is better.
