tgraca-95763 I have seen some bad movies, but the best thing I can say for this movie is that it is not the worst I have seen. I wasn't sure if it was the writer's or the director's fault, but since Jared Isham gets both credits, I can blame it on him. The same problem goes on throughout this movie over and over. Bad guy has gun. Good guy has chance to take gun or takes gun. Good guy basically gives the gun back. I can say that I have never seen a movie squash the suspension of disbelief so many times. Watching this was painful to say the least.
Wizard-8 In my past user comments I've written for the IMDb, I have warned readers about movies made by the studio called The Asylum. Now I'm here to warn you about another studio, Barnholtz Entertainment. Like The Asylum, anything coming from them is to be avoided at all costs, including this movie. I admit that I only lasted about twenty minutes before giving up, but those twenty minutes were so awful I couldn't see the movie getting any better. There were modern-looking buildings, absolutely awful cinematography made worse by obviously being compressed for the DVD, terrible acting, cheap-looking sets (I admit I did laugh at how small the saloon was, however), and really bad writing. Even if you love westerns like I do, you'll find this backyard production torture to sit through.
Robin The movie is not bad, don't get me wrong. Especially for an independent low budget film. So let's start with the good things: the cast was good, with solid character work; I liked the camera with its brownish western scenes and apparently the director made a good job, too. Unfortunately the plot had too many weird moments to make the movie overall enjoyable. *Spoiler* Why would a person start a brawl with a bystander/friend and risk getting shot, only to get into the jailhouse, when he could have walked right into the very same jailhouse by simply using the door? Why would you steal a horse from your mate instead of stealing it from an enemy, when you are about to be chased by that enemy? Why would you meet at the town square with your enemy, then dissolve again to start a gun fight, instead of starting the gun fight right at the town square? Why would a Sheriff wait for several hours to start a manhunt, instead of shooting your back when you leave the town, when he had the chance? And if he indeed did wait for hours, why would it take more than a day to catch up when the Sheriff had a gang on horses and good scouts, and the fugitive had two people on one horse? The last scene was so weird I honestly could not understand. All possible explanations that come to my mind are much more difficult and dangerous and costly than simply getting a new hair cut or crossing the state line to avoid being followed or found. */Spoiler off*So all in all a nice try, but needs better screenwriters.
Lucy Michaels I ordered Bounty on DVD thru a recommendation. Overall I think it was a good movie. I love watching up and coming talent and new directors. For an independent feature, it shows great strength, spirit & a fine workmanship. It is definitely worth watching.As for what the other person remarked on; I did notice a couple snags as with many movies, but rarely and only for a brief moment. The girls plot line could have been a little better. However, as in many westerns the action was what caught my attention.It was very noticeable that a lot of attention was paid to the action, gore, horse riding and gun fighting scenes. That were very well done.Overall I would recommend Bounty to people, especially those who would love a good western.
