    A modern take on the Western and the gangster film. It?s also a remake of Yojimbo but if you?re a fan, try and ignore that fact otherwise you may not enjoy it so much!

    Another remake of Yojimbo. Great cast, but Hill can't help but direct it like a western and then you think of how A Fistful of Dollars was better.

    Not much to say about this film, as towards the end, I lost the plot a little through boredom. Had it not been for the stars in it, I don't think it would have any appeal at all.

    this film was always good, but its better if you see yojimbo. that is the 1960 samurai flick that this story came from. this one follows that one well, and putting a mafia twist on it was a fun way to see the story.

    Actually a pretty fun movie with Bruce Willis doing the usual mowing down of villains. The story was pretty basic, a little too much. It sold itself short because there was a really great movie at heart. Bruce Willis gave a great performances in this, but he's usually pretty cons...( read more)istent so there's a lot better movies to choose from.

    Last Man Standing retells once more the original story from the novel "Red Harvest" of 1927, adapted into the Kurosawa masterpiece "Yojimbo", and adapted again into Sergio Leone's brilliant film "Per un Pugno di Dollari". Walter Hill makes a very testosterone-directed film with c...( read more)ool shootouts and a stylish direction. It isn't good, neither terrible, but badly entertaining. Give this film a try and you wouldn't be dissapointed. Gotta love Cristopher Walken.

    45/100

    For what it was, it was pretty fucking cool... Plus mixing the western and gangster genres is a recipe for success.
