This is a great movie. I love how Eastwood's character was once a serial killer, basically, but then changed into a family man. It provides for one of the best and most complicated characters in all of cinema. |

Cliche and a boring plot and uninspired characters, this movie didn't work for me. If only the whole could stand up to the final 30 minutes since all the character development is thrown on at the end. |

Classic western |
|
Unforgiven is a western/drama. If you like light westerns for just a bit of action, you will not like this movie. This is a dark western about a man with a dark past. Great story and great acting by all involved. Another great modern western! |

Eastwood's masterpiece |
|
Unforgiven is probably the best movie directed by Clint Eastwood. Unforgiven showed the more gritty side of the frontier and didn't really glorify outlaws the way some of the older westerns did. Clint Eastwood gives an Academy Award nominated performance as William Munny, a retired outlaw who goes to Wyoming to kill two cowboys who cut up a prostitute since he is short on money. He used to be ruthless before he got married, but now his wife is dead and his farm is contaminated with a flu. Morgan Freeman co stars as his partner, and Gene Hackman gives a performance worthy of the Oscar he received as Little Bill, a man who used to be an outlaw but is now sheriff of the town in Wyoming. This is probably the last great western (although the remake of 3:10 to Yuma was pretty good), so check it... |

Who needs Dirty Harry!! |
|
A Western Masterpiece directed by and starring the "old" yet dynamic Clint Eastwood. This film is about a one time "hired" killer , long since reformed and raising 2 sons by himself, who comes out of retirement to make one more hit because his family needs the money. He illicits the help of a old friend played by Morgan Freeman and encounters a ruthless and no-nonsense sherrif played by Gene Hackman. The movie is a powerful examination of morality and hypocracy in the old west and the impact of killing and being killed. Outstanding performance by Hackman earned him an Acadamy Award. Other Acadamy Awards earned by this movie were Best Picture and Best Director. Exciting from start to finsh, this masterpiece lands at #12 on my Top Movie List... Enjoy!!! |
