wali-veer Movie average movie, with the mixture of religion, action.I liked - 1) The cast. 2) Direction. 3) dialogs.Not-so-much-liked - 1) Every next scene is predictable. 2) Action is very simple… it should have been little more thriller.The script is not that good. This is a revenge based movie where in initially the villain is violent powerful but suddenly he becomes worthless and easy pray in that hands of actress. There seems to be more than 10 shootouts, all of them were like a child's play with a toy gun.One can watch this movie if you don't have much options.
Rich Wright Every good revenge thriller needs a decent villain, and Sweetwater (known as Sweet Vengeance here in good ol' England) has a great one: a thoroughly despicable, corrupt preacher who uses the cover of his profession to get away with a multitude of sins: including murder, sexual abuse, stealing... the list goes on. It's difficult to know what version of the Good Book he's studying, since I'm quite sure there are no passages advocating racism, prostitution or lying either. If he was born nowadays, he'd likely be confined to an asylum for the rest of his sorry days. But since this was the God fearing 19th century, he's seen as a pillar of the community, and is allowed to get away with his wanton criminality.Fortunately, a new sheriff has just rode in, and doesn't fall for the alleged man of the cloth's film-flammery. You see, the preacher's men have unwittingly killed two friends of his, and he wants to find out the cause of their disappearance. Meanwhile, the insane religious nutjob has got designs on a redhead farmer AND her land... and is prepared to go to any methods to grab what he believes should be rightfully his. Including of course, disposing of her Mexican husband. Unfortunately, after destroying her life, he awakens in her a monster. Let's just say Charles Bronson is about to have some competition for the highest body count...And as the predictable slaughter gets underway, you can hardly help but get involved as this irredeemable bible basher, along with his uncouth gang of reprobates, are annihilated by our wronged lady in ways which can only be described as thoroughly deserved. There has been so many contemptible things done by these miscreants up till now, that maximum satisfaction is guaranteed as they're blown to smithereens. January Jones is a marvel as the feisty focal point of the movie, and Ed Harris with Jason Isaacs offer invaluable support as the unshakeable lawman and the eminently hissable bad guy, respectably.Number one with a bullet. 6/10
M MALIK we all remember western genre films of last century specially the dollars trilogy of Clint Eastwood that still inspires many even now filmmakers like Quintin Tarantino tried to ape them but failed but this new low budget film does have some potential plus points are serious throughout the end but takes to long for climax is the only negative thing here some pointless dialogs,nudity & villain disappoints but its still worth a watch because of January Jones i have seen few of her films this lady is doing some action roles recently so do not mess with her otherwise you go down type of tag-line should have been added to the title.the plot:Sarah lives a life with her husband in Mexico during late 1800s when Daniel a ruthless religious leader kills the husband Sarah now wants revenge how she gets it the answer is in this film.the cast:Jason Issac looked cool though with black dress & long hair but January Jones shows some good acting here don't know why people hate her i like her for what she is.the addition of more action could have been better why it is toned down one may ask but there is blood & gore with some goofy moments are present. overall do not expect much from sweet water 2013 as its a film you can watch if you want to pass sometime & want cheesy entertainment nothing more my rating is 5/10.
Theo Robertson In 19th Century New Mexico Miguel Ramirez gets in to a feud with religious zealot Josiah . When Miguel fails to return to his home his wife Sarah suspects that Josiah may be behind her husbands disappearance This went straight to DVD in Europe which is somewhat surprising because it does contain relatively well known names in Harris , Isaacs and Jones . That said reading the comments on this page you are struck as to the number of comments that describe the film as being " funny " but I should qualify this by saying it is funny in the same way as Al Swearengen is funny in DEADWOOD because this is black comedy at its most brutal and uncompromising along with role reversal revenge fantasy and you can see why it might have been a difficult film to market It's not a very well paced film and some scenes seem to go on for too long and the fact that there's not a lot of incidental music to these scenes means they seem longer than they really are . That said it's probably the effect the director wants because SWEET VENGEANCE concerns it self with mood rather than narrative and is a very moody revenge thriller . One does notice that the cinematography is rather murky and fails to make the most of the New Mexico landscape , especially when you get the instinctive feeling that there's a subtext of man - or more specifically woman - versus nature going on there somewhere but this aspect comes over slightly confused and isn't as well developed as it could have been . Regardless of that if you enjoyed DEADWOOD then you might just enjoy this blackly comical violent Western
