Apache Junction - Stadt der Gesetzlosen

Worst acting I've ever seen. Moves at a snail's pace...the acting is just so awful. I barely made it through to the end...which was also terrible. I'm so disappointed I paid $7.99 to watch this huge disappointment.

If you're looking for a good western to watch, look elsewhere. Nothing is even close to realistic beyond the horses are actual horses. If you choose to see this movie, plan on asking for your money back.

Let me preface this by saying I've watched hundreds of westerns including some of the absolute lowest budget productions out there and I do not require good acting, high production value or any of that to enjoy a western. The problem with Apache Junction is its just another modern production with zero character. The direction is boring and the cinematography is non existent - lots of close in shots that are tight on the characters, something that was obnoxious 10 years ago & I'd hope would have fallen out of style by 2021. This movie is completely by the numbers & not in a good way. Its such a drag I tried 3 times to watch it and could not make it through.

The acting is fine. It's the background music. It NEVER stops!! There is music playing throughout the movie, in every scene and often makes dialogue difficult to understand. The music doesn't add to the drama, - it just annoys. Especially because it's really bad music. If I could have silenced it, I would have! I think I would have liked the movie more if that irritating, constant annoying music wasn't there.

My father worked for Four Star Pictures in the late 50's at Apacheland in Apache Junction as a gaffer. He bummed around with the best of them and he would have walked out of this Trace Adkins dud with his #12 boot shoved...... Anyway, we have long ties with the town and it's real history is much richer, more varied and a helluva lot more interesting that a tired 5cent 1930's western movie script that was rewritten on a toilet tank 50 times before it made the 1 a week grind house pulp mill. I've come to expect that anything with Trace Adkins will be in the "Howard the Duck" rack at every truckstop, which is sad because he was just in Old Henry and thankfully his bit was short in that inexpensive masterpiece. I'm thinking Thomas Jane needed a paycheck, thats why this was done, and sadly why his roles have dried up.
