Title: Why?
Product review: I had high hopes for this film. Good cast, top director, great critical reviews, based on a good book, etc. Even three quarters of the way through I was hoping for a real masterful change of direction. Alas, upon completion I was hit with the reality that this is one bad film. Even the great scenery can't make up for a disjointed and purposeless screenplay. I think the screenwriters took their cues from television show Seinfeld. This is the story about nothing. There is absolutely no point to this film.It concludes where it began with the protagonist no wiser for the experience of being a cowboy, a broncobuster, a love interest, a Mexican prisoner, and a character of questionable decision-making ability --all in a time span of a few months. Sure maybe he proved to be an honest and just individual but so what? He put himself into a situation and place where honor is determined by who has the biggest gun and justice is non-existent, nor can it be expected....
