Deserves higher ratings, awesome action sci-fi!

Wildly entertaining throughout sure it has some serious misleading aspects but come on this is great blockbuster film! Packed with awesome actors, beautiful cinematography, cool dialogue, and nice of futuristic with western style. The creators so great reminds of Fallout the games aliens even though I haven't played much of them. It's nice that Steven Spielberg was a producer he's a legend of the genre.

Great title, visuals, soundtrack and action but soulless and unengaging

Ever since I first heard of Cowboys & Aliens it was actually one of my most-wanted-to-see movies of the year. However, when it came to seeing it I found it a let down. Not all of it is a mess though. It is a well made movie, with cinematography and editing to be admired and settings and costumes that are not only great but show some imagination. The soundtrack is fitting and memorable, and while the first action scene was a tad overlong, the action is beautifully choreographed and definitely one of the more interesting parts of the movie. Plus the title is great and one of the things that drew me in in the first place. The let downs however are in the writing and in the story. The writing is mostly awful, particularly in the slower moments where those moments are peppered with schmaltz, and the story is dull with little satisfactorily explained. Jon Favreau's direction is mixed, great in the action scenes, pedestrian at other points, while the characters are underdeveloped and little more than clichéd. Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford are decent enough but deserved much more than they got, while the female lead was annoying and forgettable. In conclusion, wanted to like it but there were too flaws that prevented me from properly engaging with it. 4/10 Bethany Cox

Better than I hoped for

COWBOYS & ALIENS is one of those "what it says on the tin" type movies, obvious in content from the title. I wasn't expecting to like it much, feeling that modern-day science fiction films tend to be all about the big CGI effects without much warmth or character to go with them, but I didn't have worried. This film is refreshingly old-fashioned in feel and for two-thirds of the running time focuses on being a western rather than a sci-fi flick, which is all well and good.

Things kick off well with Steve McQueen-alike Daniel Craig waking up in the desert, with an alien wristwatch and a cracking headache/case of amnesia. He's soon involved in a plot involving arch criminal Harrison Ford, but any local enmity is put on hold when the aliens show up in an impressively destructive set-piece. What I liked most about this film is that it's straight-up serious, rather than being loaded with annoying and goofy humour. The performances are therefore better than hoped for, and the direction is fine, with the early, brutal fight scenes really proving successful. Sure, it does go on a little too long, and the ending descends into effects-filled nonsense, but overall this is winning and watchable.
