Kevin Kline
Question/Quiz: 

The Quiz question is:
Without looking below, what order would you Bill the above Actors in the opening Silverado Screen Credits?
I ask this question because the Billing order is very often not what you’d figure it would be.
Try this quiz and you’ll see.


To me the order of Billing is always interesting.
Who gets Top Bill? – and the succeeding order.
It’s often not what you would think it would be.

A Critical Showdown

Because of it’s eminent re-watchability
I place Silverado a Western Classic.
That’s how I judge these things.
Time usually tells the story.

Other opinions:

IMDB: “7.2” Not bad.

I’m a big fan of Rotten Tomatoes Reviews
because they also show the ‘Audience Score’
who aren’t encumbered by intellect.
They just know what they like.

MetaCritic: “64” out of 100.
Audience: “8” out of 10.
The audience got it.

ALLMOVIE: “4.5” out of 5.
Right.

Love this Western.
It’s generic and
Cliché as hell, but easily carried by it’s amazing Star Power and action. 

Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn, Kevin Costner, Danny Glover,
Riding high.

“A dangerous place,
in a lawless time … ’til four friends risked
all to make things right.”

“FUN … HIGH-SPIRITED, JOYOUS” 

“Fun”? “Joyous”??
Have you ever seen any Western with Tags like this before?
Silverado gets away with it.

Diablo (2016) / A Review … sorta

Diablo 2016 banner

Another Western that will make you wonder if you’re watching a Western.

Diablo 2016 Scott Eastwood

Scott Eastwood is good though. Has the Star Power to carry the movie.

Diablo 2016 Danny Glover

Danny Glover does his usual good work in a small support role.

Diablo 2016 Walton Goggins

Walton Goggins makes a good Badguy. ?Diablo 2016 Alberta

The cinematography is excellent …

Diablo 2016 Alberta 1

… Alberta looks great.

Diablo 2016 Alberta 3

But it’s a movie that won’t likely suit the palate of most Western fans.
