Saw it earlier today. I didnt know that it was a remake but not a bad flick at all. Christian Bale is a good actor but I was pretty disapointed that they made him pretty weak in this film though. I was looking for a little more shoot em up gunslinger style, especially since it's been forever that a good western has come out.
Russel Crowe did fantastic. He basically made the movie a lot better then what it really was. He plays a villan in this but he takes a liking to Bale and his son.
Really I dont want to give out too much info for those that havnt seen it yet but if you like westerns then this is a must see.
