In Reply to: Another vengeance story: "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada." posted by tinear on March 2, 2006 at 16:34:13:
This is a sort of old fashioned Western where a man's word is his bond. Pete does what he promises. I thought this was a remarkable movie. In comparison with Oldboy, although I liked Oldboy's glittering surface, I found it ultimately ridiculous. Did not bother with any others of his. Although Three Extremes just came out this week on DVD and I will get that one.
