The movie "Hostiles"

[Water Rat]

I went and saw it the other night. It wasn't the best western I ever saw , but enjoyable just the same. I'd give it a 6 out of 10.

I would say that you have rated it about right. Maybe I would have gone as high as 7 out of 10. I am from the era where most of the movies were westerns. Even the weekly westerns on TV were something to look forward to. But all that is gone now. I don't know whether it was the political correctness that has caused the demise of westerns as the main theme or what, but I do miss the days of good westerns. That is why whenever someone bothers to even put one out, it gets a few extra points just for the attempt.

I didn't mean to imply that it wasn't a good movie because it is. You should see it.....it's always better watching it in the movies imo.
