1992 - Unforgiven: "Any man don't wanna get killed better clear out back"

1992 Best Picture

Premiered August 3, 1992 in Los Angeles

Budget $14 Million

Gross $101 Million

This movie has so much potential going for it. It had a good director (Eastwood), Star Power (Hackman, Freeman and Eastwood) a wild west theme and cowboys hunting each other. Unfortunately, the movie fails to deliver on all accounts. The story was just not that compelling and the western backdrop failed to deliver. The movie was needlessly profane and the ending was unsatisfying.

Callie
Favorite: The movie was artistic. The use of colors was nice.
Least Favorite: I did not know who Eastwood was fighting for. He was not a character that I could root for. Also, the ending was terrible.

Joel
Favorite: My favorite character was W.W. Beauchamp. He brought a good dynamic to an otherwise dull film.
Least Favorite: The ending was terrible.
