Hard Bounty

First off, I can never respect or pay any mind to this comment because the "critic" completely bashes Kelly McGillis...not so much that I am defending McGillis...but she ISN'T IN THE MOVIE.

Secondly, the movie wasn't that bad. It's obviously going to wind up on Cinemax at 3AM, but there's nothing wrong with that. It's not overly "raunchy" as the other comment claims.

The actors all did a good job...the only problem I had with it is that Kelly LEBROCK (not McGillis) has a British accent which she can't seem to kick...which is a continuity problem being that her "other sisters" all have western accents.

as a fan of Jim wynorski films i had to check this out,some will think this is a rip off of the western bad girls but its not.Matt McCoy(hand that rocks the cradle)plays a bounty hunter known as the holy ghost. his flame(Kelly lebrock)is a prostitute at the saloon/brothel.his ex friend(john terlisky)comes into town looking for no good.wynorski regular(jay Richardson)is the crooked land baron.and then there's the sheriff(Ross hagen)who hits the sauce.as westerns go its pretty good. but one of the flaws is they didn't do breast implants back then as you'll see,I'm not complaining.sexy Rochelle Swanson plays one of the prostitutes.character actor George buck flowers plays the barkeep. look for directer Fred Olen ray as a gunslinger.its a fun movie.westerns come a long way since john Wayne and Randolph Scott. Kelly lebrock who was in the women in red and sexy Lisa in weird science is looking good.this was co produced by actor Andrew Stevens.I'm giving hard bounty 8 out of 10,its a good little movie,and a sexy western.

Matt McCoy is good in roles that fit him. The Hand That Rocks the Cradle comes to mind and the underrated Dead On. But this genre definitely isn't for him. The hardened bounty hunter comes riding in off the dusty trail looking spotless in his white duster and well groomed Miami Vice beard. He tries hard to channel Clint Eastwood stogies, macho voice and all... and it is just ridiculous. One or two more jokes and it would have been a great spoof or parody but it tries to be serious and just falls flat. I guess the only thing that's not flat about it are the breasts. That would be about the only thing that makes it more entertaining than watching paint dry or grass grow.

As a western fan I got to watch the censored German version years ago. But I enjoyed it then and I enjoyed the R-rated version which I recently got to watch. Kelly LeBrock is beautiful but with her Eastern accent she seems to be somewhat out of place in the Southwest. Matt McCoy is the tough, silent gunfighter who shoots to kill. The gunfight scenes are well done but the story is full of cliché, with some sex scenes and some nudity thrown in for spice. Well, if you don't expect too much you will be able to enjoy this film. If you expect Kelly LeBrock to bare it all, however, you'll be deeply disappointed. She leaves that to a couple of her female sidekicks. Compared to the tough HBO TV-western "Deadwood", this movie is quite harmless and I don't understand why it received an "R" rating. But if you are into the new kind of western films you really should give it a chance. At a more than reasonable price of a couple of dollars, it's worth the effort anyway. Jasper P. Morgan

Hard Bounty is a Western done Jim Wynorski style. If you're familiar with B-movie favorites such as Return of the Swamp Thing, Chopping Mall, or Screwballs you'll have an idea of what to expect.

I'm hardly a Western fan. I typically won't watch too many Westerns that don't feature Clint Eastwood or John Wayne, but I typically enjoy Wynorski films and I also like some of the cast.

Matt McCoy (Police Academy 5 and 6, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle), John Terlesky (Deathstalker II, Chopping Mall), Jay Richardson (Witchcraft, Vice Academy), Buck Flower (Back to the Future, Pumpkinhead), and Kelly LeBrock (Weird Science, The Woman in Red) head up the cast in this fun B-movie Western.

I think if you keep your expectations in check, Hard Bounty is enjoyable enough.
