Review of A Million Ways to Die in the West (2014) by Amy M — 20 Nov 2014
Vulgar, crude, self-referential, and irreverent, A Million Ways to Die in the West is a typical Seth MacFarlane comedy. When a sheep herder who hates the West saves a young lady during a bar fight they strike up a friendship that helps him gain some self-confidence.
Starring Seth MacFarlane, Charlize Theron, Amanda Seyfried, Neil Patrick Harris, and Liam Neeson, the film features an all-star cast. But the performances are weak, due in part to the writing. And while a lot of the comedy is funny, the jokes are often taken too far or spoiled by some random bit of nonsense.
Unfortunately, A Million Ways to Die in the West is a poorly made film that's more concerned with setting up gags than telling a fun story.
