Title: Torture to sit through. Terrible.
Product review: While Brad Pitt was an inspired choice to play Jesse James, and does a great job, and while the sets, scenery, acting and cinematography were all wonderful, I'm with the reviewers who thought this movie was an interminable, unbearable bore. One might ask how it's possible to ruin a movie about Jesse James, and the answer would be to let Ridley Scott anywhere near it and shoot the movie as a 2 hour and 40 minute post-modern lecture on media celebrity, masculinity, obsession and self-esteem, all focused not on Jesse James but on the weasely Robert Ford. Come on people- just because a movie is long and boring doesn't mean it's a work of genius!
