One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

As a Canadian, I have to say that I'd like nothing better than to see somebody make a really good Canadian movie someday. In the entire history of the motion picture industry, Canada has only made a couple of movies that stand up as world class. We just do not seem to have the wherewithal to make movies like other non-American countries do---Australia, for example, which has made many great features over the years. So with "Gunless" here we go again. How can one possibly come up with enough adjectives to adequately describe what a totally lame, pathetic, useless waste of time this movie is? It's just embarrassing to think that this is all our Canadian movie industry can come up with. You have to start with the script, which could never have been accepted for production anywhere else but Canada. Our country seems to be so desperate to come up with movies that the Canadian government helps to fund this trash. Two thumbs down for this turkey---it's as lame and pathetic as you can get. Paul Gross is a joke, and so is everyone else in the cast. About the only thing that is good is the background scenery, which is the one thing you can't go wrong with up here in Canada. In every other respect "Gunless" SUCKS!!

Talk about a basket full of interesting characters! I would insist that this film be re-made by a major studio to improve the production values but they would spoil it. Look away from that and you see a charming little film with a believable story and a great script. I would have given it a 10 except for some of the words/phrases were not nineteenth century appropriate and it was just too short! More like a yarn than a film but I enjoyed every bit of it! And they say that I need to write more lines so I will tell you more. Lots of it was period appropriate I guess, and I did find the "philosophy" class to be most interesting. I especially appreciated the character of Jack, like Shawn's mirror, and his desire to just be normal that adds to it. The Chinese folks were portrayed without stereotyping which is good also.

Man just seeing paul gross again is great, the movie was halourios, very funny, very simple movie but like everything paul gross makes, with a lot of heart. The girl in the movie wow beautiful All the actors were so great and seeing the other guy from Due South was so f......great... i just loved this movie and i really hope that the horses are fine..... the only thing that i just want...is a sequel...i want a sequel and i hope that the bad guy shows more and be in must of the movie... but everything was so great. it was like kind of Due south but in the wild wild west...of course...in Canada...and that always makes it much better!!!

recently, I grabbed few low-budget westerns to watch on my DVD during the weekend. (I have reviewed one of them, 6 Guns, that was pretty bad, and I didn't even bother to review the second one, so awful it was) So you can guess that i didn't have high expectation for this one. Especially if you add the fact that movie is Canadian, and I didn't really know Canadians do westerns too.Now boy, was I wrong to look at the film with a wrong eye.From the first shots till the end, the movie proved to be fun. There was this specific Canadian humor I guess, which I understood perfectly (Being non Canadian and even non American at all), because it was delivered very well by very talented actors.Speaking about actors. I can say for sure that for a long time I never saw such a good acting in low budget movies.God... Russel Crowey gets millions of salary for ruining the epic legends (yeah, I mean Robin Hood parody he did), while these guys delivering much more fun gain ten times less.Action scenes were shot well, camera work was good and lightning and the editing caused no questions.Of course you feel all the way through the film that this is low budget, but it adds to the charm.9 out 10...
