Isn't it typical, I watch 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes' with high expectations, good vibe, good reviews... And... Oh well a 3/5 at best. Now I go see 'Cowboys & Aliens', bad reviews etc., and while it's no 'Aliens' it's a very good western(Craig and Ford are great, Ford especially as the grizzled old father figure) in fact as you watch it's kind of a shame the aliens show up(CGI overload), Ford and Craig would have made it a really good normal western. I honestly think members here will like it(time we ditch reviews elsewhere and just see what we think here
) But I will say too much alien action happens at night, but it's well shot so you actually can see it
, anymore and we're into spoiler territory so either give it a shot with a smile and a big bag of popcorn or wait until the Dvd/Blu. Probably a 3/5, but a fun 3 as opposed to a disappointing 3.
