"Cowboys & Aliens" - Has ANYONE Here Seen It??

[staylor]

I liked it and I don't think it deservs the ire it is receiving by some.

Its overall plot is summed up in its title but the plot, characters, acting and direction were all solid. It was in short good summer fun that was no nearly as brain dead as the Transformer movies.

And most of the so called "plot holes" are either not relevent to the story or in fact did have an explanation in the script.

and I think that "13" (from house) the female actress is really hott in a flat-chested way.

As my grandpa used to say, "all you need is a handful. Anything more is a waste."

Some of us have very big hands.

Went to see it this afternoon, and it was fun! Not anything deep or meaningful or anything like that, just a fun movie! And I had a good time watching the handguns (Is that an 1860 Colt, or an 1870 Richards conversion? Did that SAA have a blackpowder frame?)

I enjoyed it, and The Boss really liked it, or maybe she was just pleasantly surprised that it wasn't awful.

Or maybe she realized Daniel Craig was in it

Saw it. The effects were well done, the CGI aliens looked great(growing up on Star Wars/Aliens and such that used animatronics and puppets I have a severe dislike of some of the CGI used over the years, like the cartoonish first Hulk movie). Ford played the part of the grisseled Army Colonel turned business man well. In all it was a great shoot'm up movie, just don't expect Citizen Kane.

I thought it was anything more than a "mouthfull" was a waste.

Nope. "A mouthful is plenty, more than a handful is wasted."

Now that you mention it, they did look similar to SEIU members.

If that was the case, then the movie probably would have been titled "Scabs Who Want To Screw You Out of Your Rights and Undocumented Foreign Persons Just Trying to Organize Peacefully." They'd probably have naming rights as part of their contract.

Are you saying that Olivia Wilde has [strike]Bette Davis[/strike] Marty Feldman eyes?

It's just a summer cotton candy movie, and can any movie with Dub Taylor's son in it be all bad?

Hey, it had lots & lots of antique guns. And aliens. And stuff blowing up. It's called "Cowboys vs. Aliens" for a reason, and it delivers exactly what it says on the tin. "Dr. Zhivago" it ain't, but it was well worth the price of a weekday matinee ticket.

What he said.

It was "dad-and-son-night-out" for us. I and Jr Termite met my friend and his 14yr old son for dinner & a movie. We ate Tex-Mex, then saw the movie. Harrison Ford does an excellent job. And Olivia Wilde is HAWT.
However, Jr Termite agrees that Olivia Wilde is "50 pasta meals shy of her ideal weight", as KdT once stated.
