One Paragraph Review: 3:10 to Yuma

There is a phrase: if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it probably is a duck. The same could be said for movies based off Elmore Leonard novels. If it sounds like an Elmore Leonard movie, it probably is one. And guess what, 3:10 to Yuma walks like a duck carrying a poncho and a rusty six-shooter with something to prove. It's neat to see a piece of pulp fiction translated into a Western story, with Western themes. I love a good shoot 'em up, especially if its got brains. And 3:10 to Yuma has both. The story, acting and imagery were well above average. Definitely check this flick out.
