Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Now streaming on Netflix. Had never seen it and thought maybe it could be a mindless, guilty pleasure like "Maverick" (1994), and "The Quick and the Dead" (1995). Turned it off after 15 minutes. IMO, it ranks right down there with "Lust in the Dust". What a stinker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I liked it. It was different. The only thing western about it was the supposed location and it sure as heck didn't emulate the original series much but I liked it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is the one we're thinking of with Will Smith, Uno and I liked it too. It was silly and fun. Certainly didn't take itself seriously.

Tennessee Trapper Tom Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 They should done it stand alone with no connection to the original. Those of that grew up with the original probably didn't care for it. But taken from a different perspective it was entertaining. Not one I'll watch twice though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I used to love the original series. Jim West was a bit of a Dandy to me but I liked the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 You lasted 15 minutes, Abeline? You beat me by about 5 minutes. And I like Will Smith as an actor. Oh well. Honestly I'd rather watch Hateful Eight again than Wild Wild West. Well, maybe not. But I would definitely watch either over CNN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grampaw Willie, SASS No.26996 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Here's a couple of my favorite westerns: "Support your Local Sheriff" (James Garner) "Dirty Dingus McGee" (Frank Sinatra, George Kennedy, Anne Jackson) I like these films because they are pure entertainment -- intended to get a laugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 But you didn't like "The Quick and the Dead" and its realistic portrayal of gunplay?! We'll have to have a screening of both films sometime. There will of course, be refreshments that might alter our opinions of them. Your twin should be there too. He can be the tie breaker if needed.
