Seraphim Falls

SERAPHIM FALLS (2006) - Sept. 15, 2006
Featuring a couple of very grizzled performances from Pierce Brosnan and Liam Neeson, this was a really well made western. The plot was simple: one man (with the help of four hired hands) hunts down another. Much of the movie is without dialogue, focusing on Brosnan's character as he attempts to elude his hunters. It definitely worked, though the ending dragged on a bit longer than it really should have. If nothing else, it's worth it for the scene in which Brosnan removes a bullet from his arm, then cleans and cauterizes the wound with nothing but some whiskey, a large knife and a campfire. ***
