The Last Hard Men film review and cast critique
A sharp critique of The Last Hard Men focusing on weak character development and uneven performances. Michael Parks as Sheriff Nye leads a cast including Barbara Hershey and Christopher Brickman in a plot about Provo and his gang with slow motion kidnap and brutal gunfights. Jerry Goldsmith's score is noted as intrusive yet not enough to elevate the film beyond a pastiche of Peckinpah style.
