Clay Travis is a retired gunslinger living as
a rancher with his wife and two kids. After the family’s 17 year old daughter
runs away to Wichita and ends up being sold as a prostitute and sent to Dodge
City, the father goes back to his gunslinging ways to get her back.
The story itself is fine. It reminds me of
the Taken trilogy, but set in the Old West, where women were openly sold as
property. Some of the violent scenes were well done and managed to build
tension. It was also a treat to see Kris Kristofferson again on screen. The
problem is that the acting and the dialogues were bad, so very bad. It was
atrocious and cringeworthy. And some of the characters were so over-the-top, they felt like a caricature of what they were meant to be.
In spite of its few bright spots, this film
could easily be skipped without worrying about missing much.
