The Legend of DarkHorse County

DarkHorse is solid piece of art is incredibly well written and shot, furthermore the actors are doing a tremendous job!

I've heard a few remarks about the pace of the movie, saying it is too slow. I completely disagree, there are so many aspects which get this film in a place in the indie film buzz, every single one in its own way and it would be horrible if we'd see a too fast paced film containing ridiculous cliffhangers like we see them on the major film.

Because this way you can entirely fall in love with the movie, the characters and every tiny detail of the story and the best part of it, it is unbelievably addictive and makes you starve for the next scene.

Flashbacks were very well done, not to flashy and and not drawn out. There were some uncomfortable close ups in the film but after I accepted it as a style of the film and not an isolated cute episode on the editor I started to enjoy them.

Excellent - from the writing and production sets to the acting, costumes, lighting, filming and originality. I've seen a few good indie films lost to not enough exposure, I hope this one doesn't end up lost but finds a home. Legends of DarkHorse County has some very dark characters, and a lot of grey characters, and it all adds up to brilliant dialogue and plot lines.

Enjoy every second. I just wish I could watch it for the first time again and know nothing of what's going to happen.

This indie film has a deliberately old-fashioned feel, being more light hearted and comic approach, being an adventure for a group of outsiders trying to meld into a small Texas town. The jokes for the most part offer minor chuckles and smiles enough to get us through some slow moments. The direction and writing does go for very sentimental reflection on people just trying to do the right thing. Even the bad guy who is really bad is still struggling for what is right.

The writing juggles the tones well but has major pacing issues in the center as at some parts the film skips through character development, such as the back story of the central characters. Lee Majors and Michael Biehn cameos were given particularly good roles as they work well together as the crazed and the sane.

Definitely not a masterpiece but an enjoyable movie to watch, especially if you like classic indie movies.

Honestly, I came into this movie with so-so expectations as the trailer I saw in a different movie made me give myself a 50% chance to watch it, up in the air if you will. But from the moment the movie began up until the end, I was gripping for the characters the whole way, the way movies should be.

The opening of the movie played a huge part in setting the tone of the rest of the film. Throughout the film, there are times when I might have started to wander through long bouts of dialog, but witty comments by the local characters kept me entertained. By the time the climax was about to hit, I was sitting on the edge of my seat, biting at my fingers, awaiting their next move.

Still it had 3 endings pondering over if that was necessary. On it's own the film wast as exciting and worth watching. Go watch.

Pretty good thriller. Lots of twists and turns to keep your attention. Great performances from Lee Majors and Michael Biehn. The story is about a Texas sheriff who greets a family of traveling city slickers making a new life in a elaborate mansion, things go wrong when kidnapping from unknown town killer occurs. Pretty good watch, nice performance by local actors all around a good movie.

Not a bad film, "entertaining" in the sense of sitting back and watching an episode of Bones or CSI. It has more development and higher production values, I guess, than television, but really it is a routine film until the end. The last 20 minutes is where you are thankful for spending an hour and half watching the development of a OK film become very good. This is a lot better than watching a 2 hour and 20 minute film shine in its last 20 minutes. Short and worthy.

More than worth a watch.

Believe me I 'get' this movie.

A movie that doesn't follow Hollywood 'formula' can be very good. But this movie was a hit with a couple of misses. And yes, I understand part of the appeal is a great plot twist, but so what. I require strong plot humor and a "good deal of action" - all 3.

In the third act the film amps up with some really nice action scenes that made me feel cheated I did not see this in the films earlier acts.

They had two bad guys, both great, but I needed more understanding of how they were connected. Fortunately I could easily discount that and stay engaged without a bother to the strong story punch at the end.

I like movies that are entertaining on face value, and have a subtext and/or character arc that allow you to think and see some value and depth to the movie. Legend of Darkhorse County has it; I just would like a few more gun shots and action scenes to keep me involved to what already was a strong story with more than believable acting.

This movie was OK entertaining at face value until the end then it became something more or significant than just entertainment. When it was over I was thinking back trying to figure out some hidden meanings, or something I have missed and then found on both a religious and sociological splendor - part of the fun.

I just have to say everyone and anyone that likes indie films they should see it. Sorry about all the gushing on demanding for more action, that is just me.

This movie is undoubtedly not for everyone.

Make an Indie version of "Taken" with less action and and a better plot twist (easy to do) and that is what you are in for - still a good watch
