Occasionally it is not what the film says at the time but what it can promise for the future which makes it an enjoyable feast to get your teeth into; admittedly cinema goers and film goers would prefer to see this happen on the first attempt, the climax of the film serenading those glued to their seats with a lullaby of further adventures to come, of the tale being even more dynamic, and in some cases, revealing more to the story and the character’s depth.

It is sometimes logical than the final instalment of any story is the one that makes you understand just how much you love the character that you have seen grow, that their life’s conclusion is paramount to everything that has happened before; it is only in the last blink towards the eternal camera that you realise just exactly they have brought to the world.

It seems the old west is becoming more flavoursome once more, it certainly has had a lot of time to find its niche market again and thankfully move away from the tired and almost disgraceful, fetish like voyeurism of the 1950s and 60s in which generations of cinema goers were treated to the version of events that depicted the wars and slaughter of native Americans and their European invaders. The old west now seems to venture into more realistic territory and yet occasionally it can blow its own trumpet too hard and offer a film that just doesn’t fit in either camp; it is neither truly awful nor astonishingly good but nevertheless it still is a piece of artistic interpretation worth exploring.

The female of the species is more deadly than the male, when it comes to Amy Elliott-Dunne, you don’t get much more deadly, you don’t feel the need more to make sure you never meet someone like them for if you do, you will be devoured, spat out and left to rot and it will be all blamed upon you.
