It does feel a bit too slight in its development, relying often on montage than anything else. Pamela Anderson's aging cabaret dancer is worth the watch regardless. It's a fitting role for her at this point of her career, showing that her time in the spotlight has passed, auditions are looking for something else. Dave Bautista with luscious hair appears for his sober type of performance and Jamie Lee Curtis is all kind of wild.

Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1 2024
2015 was the last year a western film was released in theaters by a major name, The Hateful Eight and The Revenant were the movies. We've gotten plenty of good ones by talented directors but since the genre hasn't been as desired as it used to be, very few of them created any kind of massive anticipation around them.
