Far Haven

I loved the theme of redemption in this movie, and I loved the cast. Bailey Chase is a hottie from "Longmire" who has a great, low-key presentation in this Western setting. I also just watched him in a "Left Behind" movie, and he's got some great range. A Martinez is one of my favorite actors -- I've seen him in so many things over the years and it's always been good from him. Then there's Chris Mulkey, whom I remember from "Twin Peaks." Nice bad guy. Here, you don't really know which way he's going to go. Don Most from "Happy Days" -- that was fun to see. Everyone in the cast delivers well. The storyline has a classic Western vibe and is predictable at times, but who cares when the ending is good and the message is a positive one.

It is a good low budget movie. I don't know what all the negative reviews expected. Good acting from the the lead stars. It's Got everything you want in a western. Beautiful horses, beautiful women, handsome men, gunfighting, barroom brawling, and a good message.

The movies portrayal of native Americans is very progressive and in my humble opinion, respectful.

I believe in the truth all the sets look very authentic and the costumes are well done. It's not The Good, the bad and The ugly, but it is exactly what it is.

It's a Hallmark Western. If you want something else, you're not going to like this this movie. My personal message to the studio is You make them. I'll watch them.

It felt like a Hallmark version of a western with not much of a script. The acting is barely there. The writing is nonexistent. You can easily figure out where the plot is heading; there's no mystery. Not a single curse word used I believe. There's no tension. Nothing to make me want to stay invested in the movie which I found myself almost falling asleep through several times. I can only imagine that this movie appeals to a certain group of people that it's aimed towards. Once again, no cursing, no sex and no nudity. The movie overall has almost a religious overtone. You have been warned! I wished I could reclaim the lost time I spent watching this thing.

I'm sorry. I wanted to like this movie. It's awful. Obviously fans, friends and family of the cast are rating it much higher than it deserves. I don't think it's the fault of the cast as all are wonderful. The material is very poorly written and I don't feel the story conveys what they described in interviews. It's too much crammed into a short film. It jumps around. It's on the level of a cheaply made for TV movie. It's a hallmark feature with a happy ending. What it's not is a western. If you really like this film go watch True Grit, The Outlaw Josey Wales, Shane then come update your review.

How do I hate this movie, let me count the ways Stilted, hollow dialogue Flat, slow acting Boring, excruciatingly slow paced, non-existent plot Unrealistic props, well, unrealistic everything, so this one probably doesn't count That horrific blue stage coach The sequel promoting ending- surely they do not intend to make another one, or worse, a series of them 😳 That blond girl whose only contribution was a never ending sappy smile

If you enjoy westerns, maybe visit the ones made in the 1940-1960s. The 25 minutes I watched hurt. I kept thinking it was probably made in the 70s during those bad western years (you know the ones where all the actors had the 70s style hair) but nope.
