William Munny (Clint Eastwood) and Ned Logan (Morgan Freeman) used to be killing machine in the Old West, but had since settled down. But when a kid (Jaimz Woolvett) comes to Munny, asking for help on a murderous job, the two decide to come out retirement. They each realize their true selves in the Best Picture winning film, "Unforgiven."

You've gotta admire Clint Eastwood. He'll continue directing movies 'til the end of time without ever improving his own acting. He seems to have the ability to get a great performance out of everybody in his movies except himself. He obviously doesn't realize this because he keeps starring in them.

The cinematography in "Unforgiven" is truly beautiful, showing off the landscapes of the open range in a new way. The music is, at best, lacking. There really isn't much else to comment on except for the writing.

I'd love to know if writer David Webb Peoples really believes that everybody in the Old West spoke just as he wrote. The story is incredible, but there are a lot of problems with the writing.

Truthfully, "Unforgiven" is a really good movie that I do recommend for anybody that likes Clint Eastwood, westerns, or great cinematography. You just have to get past everything wrong with it to enjoy it.

Acting: 8/10
Writing: 8/10
Video/Editing: 9/10
Audio/Music: 7/10
Entertainment: 8/10

Final Score: 8/10
