The true gunslinger!, 5 October 2000
8/10
Author: AmsterdamReprobate from Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

In most movies, gunslingers are cold men with hot bullets, but in this movie Ed Harris convinces the audience that no-one is beyond redemption. Killing out of hatred has not turned Lassiter into a robot with a gun, but a human being plagued by the life he has chosen. Great acting, by everyone.
