Movie Review by Movie Addict
August 8th, 2009

Favorite Movie Quote: "Life has a way of making the foreseeable that which never happens... and the unforeseeable that which your life becomes."

You can hardly go wrong with a show with Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen on one side and Jeremy Irons on the other. Harris and Mortenson have the law on their side, but they are really just hired guns tasked with cleaning up towns. In this case, they are cleaning up Appaloosa and opposing Irons.

Ad to the mix a new gal in town in the person of Renee Zellweger, a piano player. The Sheriff (Harris) is immediately smitten.

Now, this is just about as much plot as you need. It's a western, so you know there are going to be gunfights. But there is time for love and betrayal mixed in.

Besides those mentioned, we also have Timothy Spall (Wormtail in the Harry Potter films, and Beadle in Sweeeney Todd) and Ariadna Gil (Pan's Labyrinth), two people I always enjoy.
