Movie Review
“No, there was no need for this remake of a remake” Slate
“The Magnificent Seven” is a story of simple pleasures, and it gets the little things right” IndieWire
“The performances are dedicated, but the camaraderie feels perfunctory” The Wrap
“[W]e scarcely get to know these guys at all. We’re stuck with the filmmakers trying to come up with one way or another to inject some violence into the proceedings every 10 minutes or so while waiting for Bogue and his goons to show up to take possession of the town” The Hollywood reporter
“On the positive side, there’s Denzel Washington looking, to put it in today’s terms, cool AF riding a horse” The Guardian
“It’s two hours of hardcore, shoot-em-up pow and it’s entertaining as hell” Rolling Stone
