The Quick and the dead
(1995)
Director: Sam Raimi
Starring: Sharon Stone, Gene Hackman, Russell Crowe, Leonardo DiCaprio
our comment. "A wonderful cast, except of course for Ms. Stone!"
A young woman seeks to avenge her father's death at the annual gunfighters tournament in a ghostly town called Redemtion, where an outlaw named Herod rules with a brutal and calculating precision. The film is set on the town's one dusty street as one fighter after another is fatally eliminated from the ranks until only two fighters remain; the young woman and Herod, her father's killer.

A wild, sexy shoot-out studded with action, suspense, and offbeat humor.

Acting: 5/10 - A wonderful cast, except of course for Ms. Stone. Why the fuck would anybody want to cast her in a kick-ass movie like this one.

Violence: 5/10 - Gives the expression a hole in the head a new meaning!

Nudity: 0/10 - Nope, and we all know that Sharon Stone isn't shy.

Coolness: 8/10 - Visionary director Sam Raimi keeps the pace flowing and the bullets flying! The shoot-outs are amazing!
