Reviews

[Josh Hitch · Rating 4 out of 5]

More like a 3.5 but I did enjoy it. Basically its about two friends who over a quarter of century have made their living with their guns, one as a bounty hunter, the other as a money gun, basically a killer for hire. They sometimes get together and work on the same job, like this one where the half Indian bounty hunter wanted the money gun to back him on a bounty of Jack Sunday and his gang. Only thing is they end up in a lawless town ran by outlaws.

Recommended for fans of traditional Westerns, not the best written but its fairly fast paced and the two mains are likeable.
