- Liked the fusion of genres: western, sci-fi, and a little horror (for the abduction flashbacks)
- I really liked when they played it straight and realistic; it felt very immersive.
- I got taken out of the immersion when I saw the cowboys do things that seemed to clearly be things that people wouldn't actually do, like not running away when facing a *clearly* superior force. And throughout the movie they continued to carry guns around like they were useful, when it became clear during the first encounter that guns don't do much damage.
- All the actors were good except for that one guy who played the bratty son. It may have just been the script, and it may have been because they put him right at the beginning of the movie, where everything up until then has been pretty realistic, but I remember watching his first scene and going "ugh". I feel like the guy from the hateful eight who was in this movie could've maybe played that part.
