Hello readers,
I am back after some weeks to give a review on Magnificent Seven. Starring some familiar faces like Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt, Vincent D'Onofrio, Ethan Hawke and Lee Byung Hun, the film brings the audience back to western world and unforgettable gunslinger moment, horses, explosives and of course, a baddie in a town.
In this 2016 remake, Magnificent Seven began with a baddie, Bartholomew Bogue (played by Peter Saaguard) who decided to take over the town called Rose Creek after figuring out there were lots of gold and it was good for mining business. Such a baddie and quite an asshole, Bogue somehow killed a man who wanted to stand up aganist him and as a result, leaving his wife who seeks to revenge. Flash forward many years later, this widow decided to give the avenging task to a sheriff from Wichita, Sam and soon along with him and her colleague, they began travelling to certain places which they scouted for a group of capable men who can take down this Bogue asshole.
While Magnificent Seven perfectly captured the Western period cowboy feel and its music soundtrack reminded me somehow of last year's Macbeth, there were a few moments which bore me out. As someone who never watches the original one back in the 1960s, I can not make much comparison and thus can't argue with those who have seen the original. However, the film cast here were awesome and you can't say that you never saw some comradeship here. The characters did what they could for this small town and hands down to the fight showdown finale between Bogue's people and the town people.
If you are a fan of Western movies (my mother enjoyed this remake), wanting to watch some eye candies with cool fighting choreography (check out Billy Rocks and Red Harvest!) or whatever, Magnfiicent Seven is an absolute Western film to watch this week.
