THE LONE RANGER -1 & 1/2 Stars

[zazreil]

So I went to see THE LONE RANGER  or should I say THE TOO DAMN LONG RANGER  hoping for a Pirates repeat. But it was not to be, the movie was uneven and just dragged.  Now I like long movies if it is justified like LoTR, GWtW and Gettysburg but in this movie

I think the whole purpose of Old Tonto was to explain away the fantastic elements of his storytelling. The audience doesn't know if he is telling it like it happened, or just making up a story. I liked the movie. It isn't perfect-it's a half hour too long, and some jokes just don't work.
But I thought Armie and Johnny had great chemistry, and watching them bounce off each other made it worth my time.

That, plus, I really like Westerns. I was not bored at all.
