Old West outlaws riddle each other with bullets, beatdowns, and snappy one-liners in a highly stylized Afrocentric actioner.

The film gives every character a chance to shine, but comes up short in establishing a substantive narrative.

The Harder They Fall successfully focuses on a pulp storyline where the talented ensemble and gritty violence keeps your attention rapt....

While there have been plenty of movies to rival the most laughable digital creation to have been put on screen, which it should be remembered appeared in the same year Peter Jackson unleashed Lord of The Rings on the world, The Mummy Returns is a tough act to beat and that is something even the movie’s own VFX supervisor has acknowledged....

Opening opposite The Empire Strikes Back in May 1980, the film had one of the highest-grossing opening weekends of all-time despite opening on fewer than 50 screens. The film received mixed reviews upon its initial release, but that opinion quickly began to change over the years following its release....
