Cowboys and aliens 2 trailer movie#
Of course there’s nothing graphic, but there is a real hard edge to this movie which surprised me. All this is with a surprising amount of brutality, with bullets, arrow, teeth and other things bloodily piercing bodies, at least one solid ‘jump’ moment and at least two scenes which have real fear in them, one involving a young boy hiding from an alien, and one involving aliens doing nasty things to a victim who is still alive. Both ‘Indiana Jones’ Harrison Ford and ‘James Bond’ Daniel Craig are given tons of heroics to do, my favourite being a 007-like bit where Craig’s Lonergan jumps on an alien spacecraft off a cliff. Still, never mind, the action keeps on coming and eventually explodes into an all-out melee between…………cowboys and aliens., or should I say cowboys, indians and aliens.

I think the story could have gone down more interesting routes.

Then the film turns into a rescue mission as everyone sets off to rescue their loved ones, and I feel the film dipped a little here. You almost don’t want the aliens to turn up, but soon they do, in a really exciting and intense scene with a real feeling of panic, and fantastic and rather dark imagery of people being swooped up by ropes. There’s a real feel for the West here, with everything looking and feeling authentic, and Daniel Craig being perfect as an archetypal Western hero who is mysterious, quiet, tough and quicker on the draw than anyone else. The first third or so of Cowboys And Aliens is very good indeed, a cracking Western with plenty of action and a mystery at its core, the only out of place thing being the metal thing round Lomergan’s arm. Which can’t be that seriously, considering the premise itself, but you get the idea. They could have gone down the ‘silly’ route, with lots of mocking of western cliches for a start, in fact I expected the filmmakers to do this, but no, they deal with the premise as seriously as possible. Perhaps the idea of cowboys fighting aliens is better as a concept than an actual movie, and it is definitely the script for this film that lets it down a bit, but overall the premise is handled about as well as one could expect. It basically delivers what the title promises: cowboys….and aliens, or to be more precise, cowboys fighting aliens, and nothing more. This is a shame, because this movie, while certainly very flawed, is a really enjoyable two hours of escapism. The kids obviously don’t like ‘em, you see, ‘cos they’re old fashioned….or something. He decides to join a rescue party led by grumpy Civil War vet Woodrow Dolarhyde…….Ĭowboys And Aliens has been a bit of a disappointment at the American box office either, though that may be due to the fact that Westerns rarely do well when released during the summer ‘blockbuster’ season. Lonergan’s bracelet activates and he is able to kill some of them, but it is too late, the aliens disappear. Suddenly some alien ships appear to attack the town and carry off some of the locals into the ships by ropes that stick to them. He is knocked out and imprisoned, where it is revealed he is Jake Lonergan, an outlaw wanted for murder. After dispatching of some miscreants who try to kill him, he wanders into the town of Absolution, where he involves himself in another fight and a woman recognises him. In the Old West, a man wakes up in the middle of the desert, with no memory of who he is or how he got there, and with a strange metal bracelet around one of his arms.
