Noticed in the first six months of the year thread that I was the only one who mentioned it so I figured I'd bring it to more people's attention.


Slow West is as the title would indicate a slow paced movie but don't let that scare you off cause its only like 90mins and when the action kicks in it kicks in in an awesome way.


The film stars Magneto(Michael Fassbender) who escorts a young teenager from Ireland seeking out his unrequited love who's fled to America.

Also the The Hound(Rory McCann) has a small role in the movie.


So you western fans check it out if you get the chance I think you will be pleased.

Yeah I know like I said its slow paced but its really rewarding if you can finish it.

I meant to add that I tried watching it late at night, I was already tired. So I still have high hopes for it

I really enjoyed this movie, there was a good amount of humor mixed in and the cinematography looked great. I liked the ending, did not see that coming.

I saw it the other night. I liked it, didn't love it. The pacing was slow but the visuals were amazing.

From what I read, the people who made this movie see it as a black comedy

I can see it. Its definitely a revisionist western pretty much like all modern westerns have become but it does have a good bit of dry humor.
