I’m blessed to get into advance screenings and contribute movie reviews for Hollywood Jesus from time to time. This time it was precisely 3:10… the time a steam puffing train rolls into Yuma with actors Christian Bale and Russell Crowe in the newest release from Lion’s Gate Pictures.

The screenplay and direction just don’t match the caliber of acting.
