Since I really loved ‘Pollock’, Ed Harris’ directing debut, I was really eager to check out this follow-up. My guess is that Harris always wanted to be in a Western but since this genre is not so popular anymore, the only way for him was to direct one himself. Even though it was not as impressive as ‘Pollock’, it was still fairly enjoyable. Indeed, the directing was, once again, solid an... read more

As Westerns go, Appaloosa isn't a masterpiece, but it's still a good film: it is rarely boring and the dynamics of the relationship between the two male leads (Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen) make for a very enjoyable work of cinema. It's a little bit more restrained than other Westerns in that the action scenes aren't TOO violent or long or loud, which I think is a welcome thing.

This movie follows that formula except that this time it is two guys (Ed Harris and Viggo Mortenson) that come to a town's rescue for a very bad guy (Jeremy Irons). You throw in a damsel in distress and you have the makings of a good movie... read more

"First viewing - May 14th Appaloosa gets so many things right. The casting is perfect, the action moves the story along and comes organically from what happens rather than being flashy and trying to look cool, the set design and costumes are wonderful, even the music is well-handled. The only thing that kept it from a perfect score is there's a moment where you think the film ends, but then it makes a small time-hop instead and it took me a little bit to fall back in with where it went after tha"
