I3:10 to Yumai had me at hello when it pitted Christian Bale against Russell Crowe, two of the most intense actors in Hollywood. I anticipated a showdown as nerve-wracking as the finale of ITombstonei at the OK Corral, and for the most part, I was satisfied. The plot is as exciting as it is complex, bringing a new level to the typical western by clouding the moral centers of the protagonists. Source: Cinema Blend |

Review:
Back in the Pleistocene Era (1957), Elmore Leonard?s short story
?3:10 to Yuma,? became a tense, tight High Noon knockoff
of a Western about a rancher (Van Heflin) trying to get an outlaw
(Glenn Ford) on a train to Yuma prison so he could collect a reward
and pay his debts. By the end ? it?s a three-day trip through
Apache territory -- no one would help the poor bastard.
The same plotlines run through this flashily entertaining remake
from Walk the Line director James Mangold, who already
updated the material in 1997?s Cop Land. The story?s moral
code clearly speaks to Mangold, and he?s put two top-notch actors
in the saddle. Christian Bale is the anti-American Psycho as
rancher and family man Dan Evans, and a dynamite Russell Crowe
practically licks his lips as charm-boy villain Ben...

There's no true grit to be found in James Mangold's fun but safe Western remake. Nitpicking, however, is no way to treat a movie that gives us two heavyweights like Russell Crowe and Christian Bale on top of their games. Source: Hollywood.com |

| 3:10 to Yuma / **** (R) |
"3:10 to Yuma" (R, 117 minutes). Christian Bale plays an Easterner who lost a leg in the Civil War and has now come to the Arizona territory to try ranching. Russell Crowe plays the vicious leader of a gang feared in the territory. Almost by unlucky fate, the rancher joins a posse to bring the killer to a nearby town where he will be taken by train to prison. Splendid dialog and acting, also by Peter Fonda, Ben Foster snd Gretchen Mol, restore the wounded heart of the Western, and returns it to its glory days. Directed by James Mangold ("Walk the Line"). Rating: Four stars. Source: RogerEbert Headlines |

Review:
You just don't expect Hollywood to produce a masterwork so early in
the new year. And it hasn't. This slice of celluloid dynamite comes
from Romania, and what you see will floor you. Despite the title,
4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days speeds by in a single
harrowing day. It grips you in a vise of suspense that Kiefer
Sutherland couldn't hope to match on 24, even with that
show's tricked-up editing. There are no tricks up the sleeve of
writer-director Cristian Mungiu. Most of the time his camera
hunkers down rock-steady and observes. The subject is humanity and
its oppression. And like the best political films, its focus is
intensely personal. Set in 1987 in the final days of Nicolae
Ceausescu's dictatorship, the film begins in a college dorm where
Otilia (Anamaria Marinca) is trying to help...
