Cowboys & Aliens

On a whim I decided to watch this Western/Sci Fi movie. It was a pleasant surprise that it is a decent movie with lots of action and fun. Who would have thought of bringing aliens bent of taking over the planet to the Arizona Territory in the 1870s? It has a great cast of characters including Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford and Olivia Wilde (from House). Daniel Craig is the main character, Jake Lonergan. When you meet him in the opening scenes of the movie you see that he has a high-tech device on his left arm. This is strange for a cowboy, actually a bandit. While Harrison Ford, Woodrow Dolarhyde, is good in almost everything that he does, you will feel that this movie is not one of his best. Maybe, we do not think of him in the same light playing an older bad-guy character. We remember him as Indiana Jones.
