Review:

This is not ‘Gunfight at the O.K. Corral’ nor ‘The Magnificent Seven’ but this is a Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez inspired western, with an all black cast! And they are all one by one perfectly cast! This was an amazing trip through the ‘Wild Wild West’, where bank robbers are robbed by vigilante thugs and a town called Redwood is the location for a genuine gunfight!

Regina King, Zazie Beetz, Lakeith Stanfield, Jonathan Majors and Idris Elba all play as if these parts were written especially for them. Some surprising scenes, lots of funny dialogues and some of the best choreographed gunfights ever seen in a movie, that wasn’t directed by Tarantino!
