Well, well, well, what do we have here? It's a Western, drama, thriller, action, mystery all in one! With compelling characters, I might add. As well as very good performances.
Andrew Simpson stars as Saul, the film's hero. He was such a delight to watch, with his gentle eyes and equally gentle, soothing voice. It was a pleasure watching and listening to him. Don Swayze was also very good as the main antagonist.
We've seen a myriad of films about thieves - or otherwise - looking for gold. This is not your typical cliched film, though. It was mysterious and very unpredictable. The mystery intensified as the story unfolded, until you had no idea who to believe or trust. It also became more and more intriguing as the film progressed. It just got better and better towards the end.
'Heathens and Thieves' was a pleasant surprise and a film I thoroughly enjoyed. The film also has a very nice, thrilling finale. I'm so happy with the way the film ended!! I loved this.
