Great gathering of actors in non-traditional roles, having a great time under the indomitable fun natured spirit of Jon Favreau's directing.
Looks like a sequel should have been green lit, but sometimes less is more. Just ask the British star best known for his role as the current James Bond.
All I can say is gamble on this title on sale now at BestBuy.com and you can come back and click HELPFUL on this review after a screening.
As always my faithful few following, this is Skinny Larry, Green Lantern of the review space sector.

Jon Favreau must have loved this concept, but the film falls short in a number of categories.
It was a little too serious, and some favorite characters don't make it to the end. Fine for something like The Searchers or The Wild Bunch, but this Western is also a spoof. Sometimes I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Odd to see Harrison Ford playing such a nasty character, but I guess it shows he has range.

Cowboys & Aliens is such a fun movie, grab your popcorn turn up the sound system and set back and be prepared for a lot of fun. There are good guys, bad guys and a love story, of course. This is one of those movies I will watch more than once and share with family and friends.

It's not anything you would expect from Harrison Ford or Daniel Craig. However, this is an entertaining movie with a bit of mystery. Definitely not believable, but still quite interesting. If you are looking for something to watch just to veg., this is the movie for you.

I had mixed expectations about Cowboys and Aliens. At first I was quite intrigued by the over-all idea of mixing a western with a sci-fi, and also having Jon Favreau direct such a film greatly boosted my lust to watch this film. However it got mixed reviews and did not seem to stay in theaters for too long. I should have known better to listen to the negative reviews.
Cowboys and Aliens is a very fun movie which is a western drama wrapped in an alien action movie. I am not a fan of western movies at all, however with Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford at the helm in this movie, I knew to look past my reservations about western flicks.Even though it has a fast pasted start, Cowboys and Aliens does not waive from building a character. Harrison Ford in particular has a very strong disposition and I felt as though I could relate to his personality and character the most. Daniel Craig did a great job for such a complicated role he had.
I was blown away by the special effects, yes you could tell that they were CGI, however they were done very well and blended in perfectly with the environment. The sound effects also were very well done.
The picture and audio quality of this Blu-ray are some of the best I have ever seen and heard. The PQ in particular was breathtaking. There was little to no grain and the depth and clarity were outstanding throughout. The bonus features were also great. Many movies lately seem to leave out bonus features which we all take the time to enjoy.
Over-all I am very happy with my blind buy and greatly enjoyed this movie. Some friends came over, and out of the hesitant six of us, we all loved it. Much better than expected. Highly recommended and quite enjoyable.

This is a surprising good crossover didn't think the old west and sci-fi could mix so well but the director did a great job of mixing the two genres.

A fun movie featuring Harrison Ford, Daniel Craig and the lovely Olivia Wilde. It wasn't meant to be serious, just good fun. Who couldn't get into Cowboys, Indians and Outlaws banning together to fight evil aliens.

Saw this back when it came out at the theaters and decided to give it another look. It as good as the first time.
I was surprised it made over a 100 million back in 2011.
