Mark J @RT20598549 Jan 14, 2025 On and on and on it goes going nowhere but to the enivitable, slow slow slow, poor. See more Logan D @Greynomad38 Aug 13, 2024 Butch Cassidy and Sundance survived the infamous shootout and the former now lives in Bolivia under the name of James Blackthorn. When he learns his son needs him, he prepares to leave but gets caught up in one more theft. With the backdrop of the beautifully stark landscapes of Bolivia, this is a real treat of a Western. Same Shepherd as Blackthorn is thoroughly the draw of this tale, charming in his grizzled handling of the character, evoking sympathy for his ethics. For those looking for something akin to old school Westerns, this is it. My blond moment. I'd heard the name of a playwright named Sam Shepherd and knew the actor. I never realized they were the same person. I also didn't know he lived in KY about an hour away from me, where he owned a farm and died in 2017 at the age of 73.

See more Jan 18, 2017 I'm not sure that I could fully appreciate this movie since I'm not a big Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid fan, and have only seen that classic film once. But I definitely appreciated the incredible cinematography and production design of this modern western. And I loved Sam Shepard's performance. I just didn't feel like there was much of a story that meant much of anything. The movie just kind of meanders through a few days over a few miles and then ends. I may revisit this one again down the road and see if something more comes to me from it. See more Read all reviews
