3:10 to Yuma

What better way to spend Christmas Day than watching a western? Ok, there are lots of better ways but this isn’t so bad. This is a remake of a 1957 film which I haven’t seen. Russell Crowe plays the badass thief who gets caught and a posse is organised to escort him to a town three days away where he needs to be put on a train to Yuma.

3:10 to Yuma

Christian Bale’s character joins the posse because he needs the money and what transpires is a battle of wills between the good guys and the bad guys. Ben Foster is brilliant as one of the henchmen trying to free Crowe’s character. The two leads play off each other very well as they share some great scenes and things progress to an entertaining conclusion. 6 crumbs out of 10.
