We might have expected worse from the last blockbuster of summer.Įvents kick off with Jake Lonergan (Daniel Craig), a lone gunman, awaking on a dusty prairie with a strange device attached to his arm. But the novelty of the high concept and the strength of the casting just about keep it ticking over. The characters have about as much flesh on their bones as a boiled grasshopper. Based on a Platinum Studios comic, the picture does, indeed, concern itself with battles between inhabitants of the old west and visitors from beyond the stars. I HEAR nobody asking what Jon Favreau’s latest is about. The last of the summer blockbusters is all killer cast and high concept, writes DONALD CLARKE Starring Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Olivia Wilde, Sam Rockwell, Adam Beach, Paul Dano, Clancy Brown, Keith Carradine 15A cert, gen release, 116 min
