Viewing Notes

Ji-woon Kim throws his hat into the Western genre with The Good, The Bad, The Weird and the world is a better place because of it.  This strange, funny and exciting flick is 2 hours of non-stop action.  Each actions set piece is memorable on many levels, and it features 2 of the best chase sequences I’ve seen in the past 5 years.
