    A triumph. A great film. A masterful piece of work. It's brilliant, epic, teriffic, powerful, grippping, excellent and sometimes effective. Astonishing and breathtaking. I dont think I've seen a picture of this rare calibur before. Gene Hackman gives a raw, powerful and brutally charming performance. Clint Eastwood is extroadinary. Some of his finest work as a director and as an actor. Morgan Freeman is teriffic. One of the best westerns ever made. An unforgettable instant classic in the genre. It shows the beauty of the west and the darkness that roams in the hearts of men of which violence has corrupted their souls. Riveting, dramatic, compelling and memerising. It seperates from the original formula of the gun slinger western into a quest of redemption.

    ''It's a hell of a thing, killin' a man. Take away all he's got, and all he's ever gonna have.''


    Retired Old West gunslinger William Munny reluctantly takes on one last job, with the help of his old partner and a young man.

    Clint Eastwood: William 'Bill' Munny

    Gene Hackman: Little Bill Daggett

    Morgan Freeman: Ned Logan

    Richard Harris: English Bob

    Another Western Classic Unforgiven can only be summed up by the man himself Clint Eastwood:

    ''The Movie summarized everything i feel about the Western, The Moral is the concern with gunplay.''



    Clint Eastwood performance is so accurate this man knows what he's doing. Westerns his forte. He directs and stars in this masterpiece.
    Morgan Freeman also shines brightly.
    Gene Hackman a cool and magnificent villain who's ruthless, aggressive and unpredictable.
    My fave has to be Richard Harris as English Bob. He cracked me up everytime.

    Theres a gritty realism and seriousness to the film but the flip side to the coin is that it has humour also. There's some graphic violence and tense scenes that have to be marveled at.

    The landscapes and country are beautifully realized and Clint has made the film glow with an old timeless feel. It feels older than it's 1992 release.

    The showdown in the saloon is of the chart quality, Clint completely goes off the rail nuts spiraling back into his old former self. It's mesmerizing to watch.

    A Western Classic from the Master Eastwood.

    ''I don't deserve this... to die like this. I was building a house.''

    ''Deserve's got nothin' to do with it.''
    [aims gun]
    ''I'll see you in hell, William Munny.''

    ''Yeah.''

    I'm seing a pattern here with Eastwood movies, haha. This was great, how one "old" Gunslinger comes outta retirement to be able to provide for his children. His best Friend and only Friend gets killed and you see what happens when they piss of the wrong man...loved it.

    Does for Clint what THE SHOOTIST did for John Wayne, in some ways. Nice deromanticization of the old west. It's my mom's favorite western.

    A terrible film absolutely devoid of any emotional connection with the characters or events. Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freedman slogged it out to deliver the most wooden performance but Clint clinched it by relying almost solely on the phrase "Goddam it" to explore his characters emotional range. The cliched arrogant youth was irritating beyond belief for all the wrong reasons. Gene Hackman was alright I guess but what did we learn about his character aside from fact that he loves the law, has a penchant for violence and is rubbish at carpentry. Yawn! We saw too little of Richard Harris too.

    How this was even nominated for best picture never mind won beggars belief. Eastwood set out to film a story played out in a moral vaccuum, he managed to create an empathy and interest vaccuum in this viewer.

    Perhaps time hasn't been kind to this movie. Compare this to 2007s The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford and its shortcomings are starkly evident.
