The Quick And The Dead - 1995 - 6/10
“Lady” rides into Redemption to participate in a death duel contest.
The Old West town is ruled by ruthless Mayor Herod, who organized the tournament of death.
Paper thin premise enlivened with plenty of gunpowder.
Powerhouse cast includes Sharon Stone (riding fame), Gene Hackman, Leo DeCaprio, Russell Crowe, Lance Henricksen.
One gets the feel they wanted to emulate Leone, but everything is overload.
Sharon Stone electric throughout, and this plays better the second time around.
Do not confuse this with Bad Girls (1994) from the previous year.
