I've never been much of a western movie fan, but this inspiring movie changed my mind. The story was believable and in the fashion of old Hollywood westerns. The action scenes were exciting and well done. The cinematography is beautiful and the music greatly enhanced the plot line (especially in the ending scene). The characters were convincing and their dialogue was well written. The violence was moderate and well-presented. However, the best part was the telling of a longtime friendship that had been lost and was restored. The ending is truly inspirational and very touching. I would highly recommend this movie.

I enjoyed this movie. Most of the characters were believable and the two older miners were a fun addition to the plot. I especially enjoyed the performances of the two older brothers in the gang, Jack and Quinn, both very believable actors. The preacher, the mother and the US Marshall were also great in their roles. Some of the other characters were a little stiff and that slowed the plot a bit, but over all, it was a worthy effort.
