Different from the previous American Westerns, this film focuses on the inner activities of the characters. The PK of the revolver and the musket is not the main part, but the thoughts of the cowboys are the theme. Notorious robber Ben Wade accidentally stumbles into a small town, and his captors send him to Yuma, but a lack of police is a problem.
Because Dan, the farmer of the drought, could no longer live because of too much debt, under pressure, he decided to risk his life for 200 yuan and took over the task of escorting Wade. However, this task is not fun, Wade has a group of fierce gangsters, they can save the boss at all costs. In the face of the threat, people kept losing their lives, and some people fled in order to save their lives, and Wade also offered N times the price to tempt Dan. The temptation of money, the expectations of children, the difficulties of life, the constraints of morality... All thoughts made it difficult for Dan to choose on the way to escort.
The previous Westerns always gave people a cool feeling. Must be flesh and blood. Dan is a very helpless character, a farmer. It doesn't rain, so his family has no money. His younger son is sick and can only live in a dry place. He has only participated in one retreat mission, and because of this He was shot, but in front of the child, he still had to pretend to be a hero. In the end, he paid the price of his life for a little money.
In the western theme, such flesh-and-blood characters really add color to the film. Basically, the characteristics of a "suffering person" are all there. It is really difficult to be a man and a father! And the choices he made were more masculine, and the people watching were enthusiastic. But I think the essence of this film is concentrated in the last 20 minutes. Wade, played by Crow, kills without blinking, but from beginning to end, it shows that he has another side. He has a good sketch and will save people (even for his own sake). Safety), and finally killed his own men for Dan, played by Bell, and took the initiative to board the train to Yuma Prison...
At this moment, only men will understand Wade's approach. At this moment, I have an impulse in my heart, and my blood boils. At this moment, a real man stands on the screen.
The plot of the film is very good, and the acting is the next. "Gladiator" Russell Crowe, his body and personality are perfect for playing the robber Wade, very fierce and vicissitudes. "Batman" Christian Bale had already seen his immature performance in the seemingly Devil May Cry "Tear Doomsday", but the following films have become more mature and have the potential to become a Hollywood star. This time I played the role of the father of two children. The responsibility was on my body, and the temptation was in front of me. How to choose, I handled it very well. It is indeed an "Olympic bid" film!
The most passionate part was the last 20 minutes, when two people who were originally different from each other finally began to cooperate. The feeling really cannot be expressed in words. Go and see it for yourself!
