Maybe January Jones was intimidated. After all she was surrounded by great actors. Ed Harris, as Sheriff Jackson, was exceptionally good, as well as Jason Isaacs as Josiah. (Many of you will remember Isaacs as the evil British soldier in The Patriot.) Typical good guy versus bad guy western.
January Jones, as Sarah Ramirez, was so wooden in this film! ***SPOILER ALERT*** Even as Sara began to lose everything in her life for which she cared, Jones showed no emotion. She loses a husband whom she loves do deeply and no river of tears? Come on! Because Jones recited her lines like a robot, she made Sarah unlikable. At the end of the film, I didn't care what would happen to her. And I loved how Sarah had an elaborate French braid in her hair the entire film, a style of braid that can only be achieved by another person braiding her hair. Could her husband braid hair? I doubt it.
**SPOILER ALERT** The ending sucked. It was not a happy ending, but Sarah didn't think to take the little girl with her as she rode off into the sunset? Sarah spared the girl's life but left her with a half dozen dead bodies and no way into town?
Maybe Jones is a one-trick pony. Jones plays this exact same character as Betty on the series "Mad Men." In this film, picture Betty with a shot gun and you get the picture.
