This is the best film of 2007 there is plenty of action the storyline is genius but is hard to get to grips with in the first 20 miniutes the characters are great 3:10 To Yuma pumps you in which other films simply cannot it gives a ride to wild side and you will be begging it not to end as well as an 117 minuite slalom of guns and bad guys you get intresting special features if you enjoy a deeper intrest into the story behind the movie simply this movie deserves 5 stars Buy it now!!!!

Two great actors in Russell Crowe and Christian Bale is a good start. An action packed opening, where a money waggon is raided is also good. This and Seraphim Falls are two cracking westerns I have seen this year. The ending spoils that somewhat, but the ending in 3:10 To Yuma is very solid. If you haven't seen Copland, watch that too, as also by Director James Mangold and that film is effectively a low budget modern day western with a great cast. Would recommend you buy to 3:10 To Yuma immediately.

3:10 to Yuma is simply a superb film. The first 30 minutes the film really sets the scene perfectly, introducing a wide range of characters and their pesonalities which will sets the tone of the film.
Wonderful performances from Russell Crowe and Christian Bale, along with some wonderful captured footage, made this an absolute joy to watch. Highly recommended.

Bought the DVD a week ago but never watched it untill today and must say, the best western film ever. The plot is good, the characters, basically the whole film is great. Worth a watch.

good battle scenes
good acting
just diisapointed that bale and crowe didnt hold a better relationship in the film
where the fact that they have a mutual respect for each other isn't portrayed
really nice ending tho

I have never liked 'Westerns' but I've watched loads because my dad loves them. i thought i might not like this but i got it today and it's one of my favourite film's i have ever seen.
i would recommend this film to anyone that wants to see it or just likes westerns

i rented this film, and there is no way i would buy it.
the trailers promise an action packed western, where as the reality is that majority of it is talking.
the storyline is very poor too.
take a prisoner to a train....

This has to be one of the best westerns since The Unforgiven. Also not forgetting that this is also a outstanding remake of the old 50's western. Crowe and Bale are amazing as the leads, but it would be a crime to forget Ben Foster (30Days Of Night and Hostage) as the head bad guy, who really gives a chilling performance and steals every scene , he is without a doubt a actor to watch in the next five years. The story is great highnoon kind of stuff and makes you realize what made the westerns great. I'm not really a big fan of the western movie's, but this film had me gripped.
A suprising and brilliant western.
One to watch!

3:10 to Yuma is quality. Gone are the sentimental storylines and happy endings. The Frontier of the USA was a harsh place to survive not glamorous. At last this has been acknowledged by one of the better genres of film.

Russel Crowe (Ben Wade) and Christian Bale (Dan Evans) are excellent as usual. They are two men similar in nature but socially different. Wade is willing to take what he wants and Evans is willing to sacrifice for what he wants. In a deceptively simple way there is a greater respect for these two extremes than all the other scheming and dealing of other characters. At first it appears clear cut, good guy and bad guy - black and white. Never the less, aspects of their characters' overlap, faith, loyalty, family and as a result ideas of "right" and "wrong" become questionable. After all, "Even bad men love their mommas"

A good watched and defiantly not a waste of time but certinally not a great but defiantly a worthwhile watch. Maybe renting is a better option than buying on this one
