3:10 TO YUMA (Theatrical Release USA 2007)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì

3:10 to Yuma—2007 remake of the 1957 film with Van Heflin and Glenn Ford—has spunk partially due to the casting of New Zealand Actor Russell Crowe and Wales Actor Christian Bale. The film ends with a surprisingly unexpected twist. Excellent work by Director James Mangold. Watch for Peter Fonda in the film as well as some good performances by Logan Lerman, Kevin Durand, and Luke Wilson.
