Sci-Fi with a western kick debuts on the screen with the big screen legends in the name of Harrison Ford and screen scorching actors Daniel Craig and Olivia Wilde. Directed by Jon Favreau Cowboys & Aliens takes a new perspective on the aliens and how earth people tackle them.
The appeal to the whole movie is in the cowboy take on the movie. Where the tricks would have not have been much of work after some time, the whole credit goes to the director, actors and the team of screenwriters who kept the movie going with good momentum. As a result the movie never gets slow or even the audience feels lack of entertainment. The set of the wild outback west with the stretch of nothing and spot on clothes and characters adds to the kick of the movie.
Daniel Craigs presence as a stern outback reminds us of the Clint Eastwood who wake up in the middle of nowhere seen suffering from amnesia. Few things he sure remembers and that is how to fight. Few funny moments here and there would surely make the plot filled with action sequence a bit lighter. The best of Harrison Ford characterized as a cranky old entrepreneur with his loveable Indiana Jones hat surely charms the audience with his onscreen persona. Though at times, the purpose of making the movie seems lost with no connection. The two races meet that too at their cocky best to meet except to take revenge on alien abductions and burning cattle.
Good movie stunts, best of western acting gimmick and intelligent screenplay keeps the movie going good for its runtime. Alas, a good watch.
