Watch this if you liked: “The Magnificent Seven” (1960)

The Good, the Bad and the Western Warriors:

• With Denzel Washington and Chris Pratt leading the pack, this reimagining of a great classic becomes one heck of a ride!

• Though the story isn't exactly amazing as much as it isn't bad, it is common as it has a lot of elements that you've already seen in other western movies.

• However, the story is also not exactly the reason that makes this film great, it is thanks to the amazing line-up of cast who works very well together and delivers their best performance.

• Not to mention, the film is filled with crowd-pleasing action scenes that stay true to the old westerns.

Trivia:

• The film is a remake of the 1960 western film of the same name, which was itself a remake of the 1954 Japanese film "Seven Samurai".
