Western World

Wow! 600 words, to simply say, " Bad Movie!" Oh my goodness, are these people professional actors or did someone at this recreation of a western town just get drunk and yell out, " Hey! Let's get drunk, talk real funny and make a home video and call it a movie. We can get some fifth graders to write the script and have some rednecks teach us the dialogue.

The southern accents sound nothing like Andy Griffin or Aunt Bee. I have 163 characters left in the 600 required so I guess I will have to think of something else to say about this terrible film. I can't think of any more words that would convince you to to never ever watch this mess.

Curious that anyone can make a movie in 2017 with an entire cast of bad actors. A random bunch of homeless people off the streets of LA could be more convincing that this lame cast of characters. Add a script that barely makes sense except when its trite, and a worthless story line, and you have one of the worst movies ever made.

I haven't seen acting this bad since my 3rd grade class play. And who wrote that ridiculously cobtrived dialogue? It is supposed to be a western but plays better as a comedy.

It's difficult for anyone, even seasoned directors, to tackle the Western as a genre to test their abilities. Lana Read should be applauded for the effort but should be a lot more circumspect with the material they choose and the talent to carry it off. The Western has a history within the movie industry that stretches back a hundred years and has accumulated many casualties over the year's. It also numbers many successes and these stand proudly amongst some of the best films ever produced. High Noon, Shane and pale rider are just the tip of the very large pile. There are many many others. 'Western World' though is a very poor participant in such a competitive market. With the advantage of modern technology and computer graphics becoming the norm, audiences are becoming spoiled by these possibilities, however, simple can offer a refreshing alternative but there is a difference between simple and dull. Camera work and lighting are the cornerstone of good cinematic practice and 'Western World' suffers from poor aspects of the first and too much contrast of the other. Storyline and sets are another aspect that are critical to any films success and these are also poorly rendered. The most critical aspect of all though is acting and this is where any film will fail within the first few minutes of watching. In some cases this can happen in seconds. Making any film can be agonising for all those concerned but this pain should never be transferred to the public. I think Ms Read should look again at some of the great films and try to decide what really makes them stand alone.

Acting is bad, like mostly everything else. I just can't hope more for having my money and time back... Oh, and lame story for sure, along with the script. They are nothing short of bad here.

Just don't waste your time and money watching that movie. Don't know what to expect from a budget this low, surely it was my mistake in the first place.
