Quick Review: The Homesman: Directed by Tommy Lee Jones, Starring: Tommy Lee Jones,and Hilary Swank.2/28/2015 Hey guys this is a quick review. These are going to just paragraph reviews that I write on the small movie fare that I watch throughout the week. There will be reviews for larger films during the weekends. Maps to the Stars review coming up. Sigh... well that was disappointing. Now it's not that bad, but wow was that not what I expected. Then again the problem I have with this film is probably a matter of expectation. In going into The Homesman I expected a fairly straightforward western. It is not. This is not because of the style that the film has,but more falls on the story. There are some odd scenes in this film, and some characters seem to act in ways that just don't seem to make sense. Tommy Lee Jones creates some impressive and beautiful scenes, but the material just doesn't seem to support the film's 122 minute length making it feel kind of long. The performances are really good though,but it all just doesn't seem to tie together completely. I give The Homesman a 6.5 out of 10.
