Avis sur le produitCowboys & Aliens (DVD, 2011)

Good movie BUT some things we’ve seen before & TOO MUCH CRAIG

I have been a fan & collector of Harrison's for over 30 years.
I USED to be first in the door opening day for his films. I did want to be there for this one but could not make it.

Now, we see latest Bond Craig throughout this movie & he got top billing. Why, the current in the long list of this character. No other hit movies. Now, Harrison. Let's see. Oscar nominated for Witness. Played two famous movie characters Han Solo & Indiana Jones. Long time biggest movie money maker.

The film is good. You have seen the ending a million times. The Wilde character, I won’t do spoilers here, you could guess.

Could hardly see a lot of the night action. Took forever to see the aliens. Stole part of that idea from "Alien".

Normal special effects.

One of the talk shows Harrison appeared on to promote the film mention how 3 films in a row he played a grouchy guy.

Too many shots of Craig making that touch guy face.

A few extras on the DVD-nothing special. No chapter search list. AND, COMCAST COME ON. We now get Comcast advertisements with DVD's. TACKY!!

So, a good movie. Pick out the seen before parts from other movies.Lire l'avis complet...

Intertesting blend of Western & sci-fi genres

When the planet is threatened by an alien invasion, humans set aside their differences and unite in fighting a common enemy. Since this is the Old West, it is probably not realistic that a sadistic cattle baron would cooperate with the poor townspeople he enthralls --- not to mention the local natives, a wanted criminal, and a woman --- but wouldn't it be nice if they DID all get along and find lasting comeraderie and redemption? For the sake of the movie, this is necessary; it is, after all, an action-adventure film, not a depressing story of humans squabbling among themselves. As in the Westerns of old, you want to root for the good guys and cheer when they vanquish the bad guys; not surprisingly, once the humans put aside their differences and team up, the audience gets what it wants. The film uniquely combines the Western and sci-fi genres. My only reason for deducting a point was that many of the scenes are shot in near-total darkness, making it hard to see the aliens and tell exactly what is happening. But over all, an exciting feel-good movie, worth a look.Lire l'avis complet...

Explosion across the screen!

This DVD to watch was awesome! The story line was so original for a change and not a remake. The actors were excellent! As usual Daniel Craig just shined! You did not know to hug, kiss, or hate him great! all the characters were so deep! This movie had something in it for everyone! This movie had cowboys, Indians, and aliens! drama, action, Sci-fi, romance and battle scenes, gunfight scenes, dog, horses, special effects and beautiful, desert scenery! This movie reminded you of iron man, Indiana Jones, Independence day and like custard's last stand! The only thing this movie was missing was the ninjas. This is so creative, visually stunning, and non-stop suspense that something would be wrong if you did not come away after watching this DVD amazed and wowed!!!!!!!!Lire l'avis complet...

The 'Old Guy" and the "Young Guy" meets "Si fi"

Where to begin. The movie started after a fashion, but hit a 'bor-ing' stretch before getting exciting. The action came hard and fast as the 'Cowboys' began to fight back. The story does wrap up some lose ends which I felt could have been sooner, but that's the film editor. As for the story line and plot... I liked/loved it. Scale of 1 to 5, I give it a 4. Harrison Ford eventually brings the macho maturity and Daniel Craig- the "cold/calculated agility, just what I'd expect from the "Fugitive" and 007. I'll keep my DVD and watch it again.Lire l'avis complet...

Give it a chance. Great comedy !

I have to admit. I liked this movie when i first watched it. But, i didn't fully appreciate it until i had watched it a second time. You really get the genius in the humor the second time around. It seriously grows on you. Very few movies are this way. The characters in this movie are outstanding. They play their individual parts perfectly. Let the mind go for a while and just enjoy a good comedy with a crazy western and sci fi mix. Don't take it too seriously and you will definitely find it entertaining. Lire l'avis complet...

Cowboys & Aliens (DVD, 2011)

When I first saw this film I was somewhat at a loss. The movie left a lot to be understood, and frankly, I thought that I must have dozed off and missed something. So I watched it again, and I didn't miss anything. This film is as if they took something like The Magnificent Seven and some 1960's low budget Si-Fi movie with big name stars, and tried helter-skelter to make a new kind of movie. Alright, I guess that aliens could have come down to Earth in 1880, as easily as 2010, but if they have that kind of technology, why would they want to 'study us for weakness'? They'd just kick our ass back two hundred miles and vaporize anything that got into their way.
This movie is like something from M. Night Shyamalan, with his "Signs" or "Lady in the Water".Lire l'avis complet...

Guilty pleasure

I don't care how silly this film is. I love it. Daniel Craig is mesmerizing. The plot is so predictable, but it's like a book you read over and over as a little kid: you know what is coming but you like it anyway.Lire l'avis complet...

Cowboys & Aliens (DVD, 2011)

This movie is A M A Z I N G ! If you are bored with the same old genre, then this movie is for you. A great mix of old west meets alien invasion. This is no ET. Think Western meets Predator. Great action, special effects and overall concept. When the towns people of the old west have their loved ones taken by aliens, they look to one man to help them get them back. An otherworldly weapon is used to fight fire with fire after he escapes abduction with more than he came with. Honest towns folk, Outlaws and even the Native indians come together with a common goal to save the Earth. Lots of violence and plenty of gross out scenes but it is all worth it. Small ones may be a little unsettled but depending on their maturity, this movie is great for just about anyone of any age and even stars the boy from Last Airbender.Lire l'avis complet...
