Sunset Ratings & Reviews

marshalseaSeptember 4, 2025
How the hell is this 21%? Some real derpy group think. Went in blind, knew nothing about it except it was an early Bruce Willis film. No it's not perfect, but there's a lot to like here... I mean have you seen the size of Tom Mix's hat? If that doesn't instantly add a star to your review you're reviewing films wrong. Garner shines throughout - there was a reason he was a star. Supporting cast is brilliant in the main and it balances itself quite well. Worth a Sunday watch with a big packet of crisps.
