Seth MacFarlane (Ted) a rendezője, producere, társszerzője ennek az új vígjátéknak, valamint ő alakítja Albertet, a gyáva birkatenyésztő farmert. Miután Albert kihátrál egy pisztolypárbajból, szeszélyes barátnője elhagyja őt egy másik férfiért. Amikor egy titokzatos, gyönyörű nő lovagol be a városba, segít hősünknek megtalálni a bátorságát, és közben egymásba szeretnek. Ám amikor a nő férje, a hírhedt bandita bosszúszomjasan megérkezik, a farmernek próbára kell tennie újdonsült bátorságát. (UIP-Duna Film)

Ellentétes hülyeség, amiből remek 6 részes sitcomot lehetne csinálni. Remek kámeaszerepek (Marveles srácok a Stan Lee kámeaszerepeivel tanulhatnak), top szereposztás és néhány klassz poén egy merészen vágott anti-western világba ágyazva, amilyenre még nem volt példa. Másrészt néhány rendkívül erős, már-már kínos poén, és annyira jól rendezett jelenetek, amelyek jobban illettek volna a néhány sikertelen felvételt tartalmazó bónuszba. Mintha MacFarlane-nek kevés ideje lett volna, és nem is csinált volna ismétléseket. Mintha egy hét alatt hozta volna össze. A harmadik csillagot, bár azt napokig mérlegeltem, a film jó hangulatáért adok. És Neil Patrick Harris miatt, aki a legszellemesebb az egész filmben. Maga MacFarlane mint húzóerő kudarcot vallott.

What should I say about my rating? I probably never saw such an inconsistent movie. On one hand, there was an intelligent and fairly original humor, but on the other hand, there’s toilet humor which isn’t only cringy, it’s also completely purposeless. I was also surprised by the fact that Seth MacFarlane isn’t afraid to promote Neil Patrick Harris and add some How I Met Your Mother Barney Stinson jokes, because that’s exactly who Neil Patrick Harris was playing in this movie. In any case, I liked it, it was the most pleasant thing in the entire movie. But the two stars are my final rating and that’s not about to change – despite the fact that I had a good laugh a few times. But that pales in comparison with the fact that it’s a completely unlevelled comedy that doesn’t even know what it wants to do.

The fecal humor, which also has to be shown with everything it encompasses, will destroy me one day. And yet A Million Ways to Die in the West could have been a really good comedy if it had dispensed with these unnecessary things. Seth MacFarlane writes and acts like a very rude and still funny Woody Allen, he has a lot of ideas (maybe too many) and the film, which smells of western atmosphere, moves along briskly. Of the supporting characters, I liked most the fiancés played by the charmingly vulgar Sarah Silverman and the corpse-pale Giovanni Ribisi, Charlize Theron was very good, and Liam Neeson played the bad guy a bit like Henry Fonda in Once Upon a Time in the West. Even if you don't want to see the film, at least listen to Joel McNeely's great soundtrack, on which Goldsmith's honest school is really evident. Three and a half.

But it's a very strong 3*. The reviews had made me expect a mixture of disgusting and vulgar jokes, which is what I got, but in such a novel and original way that I laughed out loud and often. I find it hilarious that all those filthy MacFarlane sins were coming out of the mouths of so many A-list actors, not to mention how deadly serious or endearingly insane they could look while doing it. But not to spoil the script too much, some of the jokes are really excellent and the overall "promotion" of the Wild West, where everything smells bad and even a visit to the fair is a deadly dangerous affair, also won my warm sympathy. Towards the end, MacFarlane slowly loses his breath, but he still has the backing of both the over-the-top Charlize Theron, who’s as lovely and energetic as ever, and also Liam Neeson, who plays the bad guy with clear gusto. But if there's one thing this film really deserves the audience's attention for, it's the absolutely perfect cameos – for example, the scene after the credits (specifically after "THE END") has never amused me so much. The 4* are hanging in the air, we’ll see next time. 70%

A somewhat unconventional and quite imaginative look at the Wild West through the lens of a filmmaker who brought the most unusual stuffed animal to the screen. A Million Ways to Die in the West is undoubtedly a funny film, but at certain points the nice and casual humour becomes rather embarrassing and even fecal. The cast was well chosen, as were the cameos. In short, a film that had both bright and dark spots, and didn't offend but didn't impress either.

Jackpot!! What's better than a very unserious, troll black-humor satire? An unserious, troll black-humor satire in the wild west! The result is a brilliant, light-hearted parody that takes shots at everything it can get its hands on in the Wild West: Catholics, homosexuals, local customs, Native Americans, gun duels and saloon brawls. It's fresh, original, very funny, and if you the style of Seth Rogen, Adam Sandler or Seth MacFarlane's Ted you will cheer with delight. Perhaps I'd just shorten the running time by 15 minutes and try to ride the cadence of the humour a little higher in the second half to match the first, but otherwise I have nothing to add. Definitely not a film for everyone, but those who agree to its rules will not be disappointed.

This had the potential to be a good comedy, but eighty percent of MacFarlane's jokes just didn't land for me. It's a shame because I genuinely enjoyed the remaining twenty percent (such as the dollar bill, the Indians, many unexpected ways to die, the saloon brawl, etc.). It's disappointing that the creators relied on such overly crude humor when they were clearly capable of much funnier material. One bright spot was Charlize Theron's performance (no need to explain why), but overall, it felt like a missed opportunity. / Lesson learned: Don't be crazy and don't smile for the photographer.

I don't know what everyone expected, but this is just a good comedy. Yes, it's unnecessarily stretched out, but if you enjoyed Seth's humor in his other works, you'll probably enjoy it here too. Moreover, I just have a weakness for the Western setting, which I love. And some of the jokes, especially the modern ones that don't fit the time period, are excellent. Great contrasts. Seth's an asshole, but an asshole that works for me.
