Advantages: Great characters and final shoot out Disadvantages: Bale's limp seems to come and go a fair bit
I seen this in the cinema the otehr night and thoroughly enjoyed it. My interest in westerns had never really develpoed further than beyond the Clint Eastwood movies, however this film changed that. Christian Bale plays a poor farmer whose being bullied off his land by bailiffs and the railway company, his sons are ashamed of him and he feels as if he has failed his family. However the oppurtunity to change this around arises when Ben Wade (Russell Crowe); a ruthless criminal is caught and has to be taken to catch a train to prison. Bale offers to go for the large sum of money offered and also to make his sons proud of him. But to catch the 3:10toYuma he must track for many miles being hunted down by Ben Wade's bloodthirsty gang.
A nice big shoot out at the end that was very enteretaining and alot of pathos creeated for Bale ...
Advantages: you see for yourself Disadvantages: you see for yourself
American Western film is a lost genre in this age of Toyota, Honda and Kia. Look, Asian brands are even kicking asses of American auto companies. We see horses and we'd likely think of them as part of a Marlboro commercial. So this movie's a bold move back to the brave, old world. I think my two-hour ride with them fast horses, ruthless cowboys and sneaky Indians in the wilderness of Arizona was all worth it.
Even more so given that 3:10toYuma stars Russell Crowe (Ben Wade) and Christian Bale (Dan Evans). Yes, I am kidding you not. The performances of these two gifted actors should be enough reason for you to watch this. Their tandem is not exactly like Jacky Chan and Chris Tucker in Rush Hour franchise or between John Travolta and Nicolas Cage in Face/Off. Crowe and Bale neither tease each other so that the other could deliver ...
Advantages: EXITING AND REALISTIC WESTERN Disadvantages: NONE
When a psychopathic outlaw falls into the hands of lawmen in a small town, someone has to make sure he boards a train bound for Yuma and prison-the 3-10, and all the while his gang are circling like dusty sharks.
That's the plot in a nutshell of this exiting and realistic western.
Ben Wade the psychopath is of the most dangerous variety-namely an intelligent one and Russell Crowe turns him into a most charismatic villain.
Watch him in the scene where he almost hypnotises the farmers wife by instinctively latching on to her personality and longings, and hes alone with her for only about a minute.
Christian Bale is Dan Evans the farmer under pressure on several fronts-businessmen who want his land by any means to further the railroad (railroads being a constant theme throughout the movie) his wife struggling against the threat ...

DVD Description
When stubborn farmer, Dan Evans (Ven Heflin), attempts to bring wanted criminal, Ben Wade (Glenn Ford) to the authorities in Yuma and collect the reward, he's in for quite a challenge. Desperate, the captive criminal offers the poor farmer $10,000 to set him free. While waiting for the train, the two men engage in a brutal battle of wills and as Evans eludes Wade's gang of miscreant thugs, he must fight his own moral battle and catch the 3:10 to Yuma. A poignant and chilling western, 3:10 TO YUMA evokes more thought and emotion with its timing and clever scripting than most traditional shot gun-riddled Westerns ever achieve. Director Delmer Daves teams up with pulp writer Elmore Leonard (who would go on to script GET SHORTY and JACKIE BROWN) to deliver this sharp and biting western classic.
