Jane Hammond (Natalie Portman) es una buena ciudadana que está casada con uno de los peores malhechores de la ciudad. Cuando su esposo Bill (Noah Emmerich) se vuelve contra su propia banda, los despiadados Bishop Boys, y vuelve a casa apenas con vida con ocho balazos en su espalda, Jane decide coger un arma y tomarse la justicia por su cuenta. Cuando el líder John Bishop (Ewan McGregor) prepara la venganza, la única esperanza de la familia protagonista está en pedir auxilio al viejo amor de Jane, Dan Frost (Joel Edgerton) un pistolero cuyo odio por Bill sólo es superado por su amor por Jane. Ahora Dan, al que Jane no veía desde hace una década, le ayudará a defender su granja y a hacer frente a la banda de delincuentes. (A Contracorriente Films)

A small-scale Western film that doesn’t bother with the story too much and puts people who need to defend a wooden house in the middle of a desert into the main role. Nothing more, nothing less. Anyhow, as a small-scale film, this movie is pretty watchable. Here and there it offers a more interesting dialogue or shows a more interesting scene. The actors are also pretty okay. Nevertheless, the movie is best summed up in the word “small-scale”.

If we continue in a similar spirit, this modern trend of western movies will soon fade away. It's like the films wanted to take something from Leone, but they forgot that it's not just about the slow pace and long shots... Even the famous faces won't save it, this is western boredom. However, the story is not so bad.
