To be fair, I think the first half of this movie is great. There are a lot of long, slow shots which really feel reminiscent of a spaghetti western. But as it goes on, it eventually just turns into a mindless action movie with lots of quick cuts and as much CGI as they can fit on the screen. So yet another entry into the “yes, this movie is bad, but it’s a Weird Western!” category.

Here’s a trailer. You can currently watch it on Netflix.

    The first half genuinely felt like it had its own thing going on, and then the aliens arrive and instead of it going off the rails it maintains tone and gravitas. I really enjoyed it.
