When outlaw Nat Love (Jonathan Majors) discovers that his enemy Rufus Buck (Idris Elba) is being released from prison he rounds up his gang to track Rufus down and seek revenge. Those riding with him in this assured, righteously new school Western include his former love Stagecoach Mary (Zazie Beetz), his right and left hand men — hot-tempered Bill Pickett (Edi Gathegi) and fast drawing Jim Beckwourth (R.J. Cyler)—and a surprising adversary-turned-ally. Rufus Buck has his own fearsome crew, including “Treacherous” Trudy Smith (Regina King) and Cherokee Bill (LaKeith Stanfield), and they are not a group that knows how to lose. (Netflix)

Oh, come on! This film isn’t as bad as some people say! We all know what bothers viewers who rated The Harder They Fall poorly, but in the end, this Netflix western entertained me. Yes, the comparisons with Django are completely off; Tarantino’s film is in a completely different league quality-wise. The Harder They Fall relies heavily on its captivating, colorful visuals, which pleasantly surprised me. The acting is also top-notch, with everyone involved delivering strong performances. In terms of action, I have to highlight the excellent prologue and the train robbery scene; however, the over-the-top finale didn’t quite work for me. So why am I only giving it three stars when I’ve mentioned only positives so far? It’s clear that the film wasn’t made by someone more capable. Listening to the dull dialogues can be quite taxing at times. And the digital blood is everywhere. But in the end, I’ll give it a 6/10.
