The plot for this film is excellent, what really stinks is that the budget doesn't do it justice. Sadly it becomes just another "B" movie. C. Thomas Howell provides an excellent performance but most of the other actors seem to be lacking something.
Not only is this movie well acted but its got great action and really makes you think. The best part *SPOILER* is that they don't hesitate to blow the bomb...in fact instead of toying with it or messing around for the whole movie they barely hold back and then hit you hard and fast with it!
While this is a great film and I laughed a lot it did seem a little cliched at points. It did do a great job of being an underdog movie without promising that everything would be a walk in the park...
A must see even if you missed the amazing Firefly TV series. It will keep you on your toes and I've never seen a film that captures and modernizes a cowboy better than this.
Really disliked the portrayal of faith in this movie and the ending was pretty rough but I suppose had a good point. It will make you jump but there is very little thinking involved for the most part. Pretty predictable.
