Western Wednesday: 6 Guns


It's another 'Western Wednesday' and this week's film is 2010's 6 Guns.

The plot to this one is pretty basic:
The movie is about a gang of murderous outlaws lead by Lee Horn (played by Geoff Meed) who seeks out a former sheriff named Will Stevens who killed his father. Upon finding him, the gang learns that Will has settled down and started a family. So, as revenge, Horn and his gang kills Will and his two sons, and rapes his wife Selina (played by Sage Mears). Of course Selina wants revenge and when bounty hunter Frank Allison (played by Barry Van Dyke) she sees her opportunity. Selina convinces Frank to teach her how to shoot a gun and, eventually, when Lee Horn's gang returns to town Selina gets her revenge with Franks help. There isn't much more to it than that.

Overall, this one is a slightly below average Western. Not terrible, but not great. The acting is ok with Barry Van Dyke giving the best performance. If you're a huge Western fan then you might want to check it out, but I wouldn't recommend it otherwise.

I give this one a 2 out of 5.
