This movie is a lot of fun but very hard to rate. There are scenes that are spectacular, like the opening sequence where Jake awakens naked in the desert and has to fight off some very bad men. There are scenes that make you cringe, like every time Paul Dano opens his mouth. There are great performances and terrible performances. There are funny lines and lines that make you want to punch someone. There are great special effects and there are really bad special effects. The worst part of the movie is the middle, which drags on forever. The beginning is absolutely great and the end is pretty much okay.
This is the kind of movie you should only watch on DVD. Just watch the opening credits, the fight scene, and the attack on the town. Then fast forward to the last twenty minutes. Everything in between is pretty terrible, except that Harrison Ford is surprisingly intense as Colonel D. He acts like he's in a real Western!
