  Cowboy Fun!!

  by ajallen_02

  If you love Cowboys kicking tail then you will love this movie. I went in with the expectation for a good balance of action and ridiculousness and was not disappointed. Loved every bit of this movie, from the cheesiness to the intense action.

  I was really hoping this was gonna work out...

  by mtknightdog

  "The director of 'Iron Man' presents Bond, Indy and TronGirl fighting aliens in a western setting!"
  That's pretty much all I knew going into this movie.
  Unfortunately, that same statement is also all I could tell you about it hours AFTER I had seen the actually movie!
  I was really, really wanting to like this movie. I mean, Harrison Ford as a town sheriff sounds awesome by itself. So does Daniel Craig frying extraterrestrials with a laser while wearing a cowboy hat. Sounds like a dream movie that would never get made. Yet, somehow it did; and is only one-fourth of as satisfying as you dreamed it would be. Oh, and a somewhat unique and memorable storyline would have been nice as well.
  Unless this movie is my only choice, I will not watch it again. Then again, I can always read a book.

  Meh.

  by roadrunnerkn

  I really really WANTED to like this movie. I tried really hard to like this movie because not only do I like virtually all of the cast but in general I also like sci-fi-ish movies. I couldn't decide if Harrison Ford is a bad guy or a good guy and the alien special effects were nothing to write home about. A large part of the movie was really really dark and lost my interest on a few occasions. I found myself sitting there wishing I had a fast forward button.

  Loved it!

  by juspain

  I really don't understand why some people love this movie, and others absolutely hated it. I didn't know what to expect because of the mixed reviews I heard, but I thought it was freakin awesome!
  The movie had enough of everything to pull me in the entire time. A little violent at times, but what do you expect with a movie with this title?
  It's finally an alien movie that I have wanted to be made for a long time that I think is worth watching!

  Cowboys vs Aliens, What could be more fun?

  by

  It was not a brilliant movie. But, if you're looking for a movie that is entertaining and has a few good laughs in it too- you can't go wrong with this one! I would watch it again, just because it was fun. It was a good movie, and all around entertaining.

  Intesting mix

  by Wolfman191

  Jon Favereu has created an interesting mix of the Sci-Fi/Western. If you are a fan of both genres it's a definite GO!!!

  Saddle up and ride

  by jenlo2

  I didn'tknow what to expect and I was very pleasantly surprised. This movie was a good western story - well axted and filmed beautifully. The characters reaction to the aliens and fighting them were very much in character to the time and place which kept the movie believable in a wierd way. I've never been a big Daniel Craig fan but he was my favortie in this movie and has changed my aopinion of him. I'm now looking forward to Dragon Tatoo

  Cowboys & Aliens Movie Review

  by Asianfreak

  75 out of 100 Packed with fantastic special effects, explosive action, non-stop thrills but it doesn't reach the director's previous movie "Iron Man" kind of entertainment.

  Cowboys & Aliens

  by lilviewed

  Cowboys and Aliens has a little something for everyone, the sci-fi monsters and space ship, a little romance, the aura of the old west with its interesting cowboy characters and indians, a kid, a dog, a beautiful girl and lots of action. I really enjoyed the movie, seeing it on the large screen with the amazing effects and surround sound explosions greatly enhanced the total experience.

  Hey, I had fun...

  by

  I'm a big-time movie goer. I have gone to the theater nearly every weekend this Summer, so I'm not biased when it comes to my opinion. This is why I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed Cowboys and Aliens.Let me be clear- this is NOT an Oscar winner nor is it even in the Top Ten films of 2011. But what it IS, is a really fun movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat!
