First of all, immediately after reading this, you must go to the theater to watch this outstanding, great, excellent, whatever adjective that you like, movie. I mean, just go ahead & crank up your car & let it warm up, so when you finish reading you can just hop in & drive straight there.
Consistent with the title, 3:10 to Yuma is the actual train ride that will take bad ass outlaw Ben Wade to trial to be hung. Ben Wade, played by Russell Crowe, is head of a gang of thieves & murderers that run the Southern Railroad. When he is captured, Ben is escorted by a group of marshalls & Civil War veteran Dan Evans (played by Christian Bale) to the train station. Sounds easy right? Wrong. What happens during the journey there is explosive! Ben Wade is a force to reckon with & Evans ain't playing with him either. Both of them are completely different morally, ergo has to earn each other's respect.
Bursting with energy, excitement, & just down right cowboy gangsta shit (lol that's the only way I can think to put it man) 3:10 to Yuma is the best western movie I've seen in a long time. Trust me folks, if you're not into Westerns you will be after this. It's so good you won't even notice or much less CARE.
This is going down in history as a classic, not just with me, but Oscar wise. I hope they get something for it. Still waiting for the rest of the upcoming movies this year, but so far, this has got to be one of my favorite contenders for an Oscar. Not sure which category yet cuz there's been so many great movies & sequels this year. But go see it! You don't wanna miss it! Me & Actor said this is gonna be one of those movies that our grandkids are gonna ask "Grandma, did you really go see that in theaters?" Yea... Like how we now ask "Did you really see Casablanca?" Yea... Go see it. Now. And bring me some nachos on your way back. K thanks!

Butterfield: Twenty-two robberies, over four hundred thousand dollars in losses.
Ben Wade: Ya'll notice he didn't mention any of the lives I've taken?
Ben Wade: I've always liked you Byron, but even bad men love their mommas.
Ben Wade: No, that's a lie... It was a train full.








Ben Wade: They're going to kill me in the morning... I'll never see the sun.
