ROTTEN TOMATOES: Trailer Bulletin: Crowe vs. Bale in "3:10 to Yuma"

Trailer Bulletin: Crowe vs. Bale in "3:10 to Yuma"

by Scott Weinberg | June 18, 2007

It's a project that almost died and got resurrected more than once, but so far this "3:10 to Yuma" remake looks like it was worth the trouble.

Russell Crowe is the villain. Christian Bale is the hero. James Mangold is the director. Here is the trailer.

Now, I know I'm a soft touch when it comes to westerns, but that's a pretty impressive trailer, no? Yeah, it gives too much away (like most trailers do), but since the movie's based on a fairly well-known 1957 film (not to mention the original Elmore Leonard story), I guess they're not too worried about spoilers on this one.

Flick looks solid to me. Opens on October 5th.

Could be good. I'm a big western fan, but I haven't seen the original yet. Netflix!

Hate Westerns. Love this! Between this and American Gangster, I have a feeling this fall will be the comeback Russell Crowe has needed.

If you say you hate Westerns and have never seen a Sergio Leone movie my open hand will come through your computer screen and slap you. Of course, if you have seen Sergio Leone and still hate Westerns I will also slap you. So you're pretty much screwed either way.

That was a bit of an over-reaction. But you should see some Leone anyway.

Looks pretty cool. This will either be as good as it looks (in terms of how well-done the trailer is and its cast and director) or be a dissapointment, but I don't know how they could screw this up.

It was only yesterday after watching Sam Peckinpah's The Wild Bunch for the frst time in years did I think they don't seem to make great westerns like that anymore.
I stand corrected.

This along with American Gangster looks like 2007 will belong to Russell Crowe.

it is definitely looking like that...some redemption for that last movie he did where he was the stock trader or whatever i don't know i saw it on an airplane to Amsterdam and it was painful to watch miles up in the sky and nothing else to do.

"I like this side of you", Russell says. I like every side of Christian Bale! I know that sounded gay, so mock me. At least I know I'll be mocked for a person, who's worth it.

might i suggest you stop using soap with lavender and tea tree oil? it reduces your testosterone levels.

i guess a man crush on Bale is okay though. he's pretty cool. as long as it's not some pretty boy.

I have a man-crush on Leo DiCaprio, so what does that say about me?

This movies looks wonderful. Haven't had a good Western since like...Unforgiven. And that was 15 years ago.

You're thinking of "A Good Year". I saw it in theaters and liked it, but with my experience any movie on a plane sucks (headphones suck, picture quality is atrocious) unless you have a laptop or PSP.
