Jonah Hex

Jonah Hex is apparently based on a few short graphic novels. From what i understand, this movie tries to incorporate a bit of them all. After seeing the preview for this movie, it looked like a really fun movie, possibly in the same style as Planet Terror or Death Proof. However, when i got into the movie, most of the time was spent leading up to the exciting parts you see in the preview. When you see the preview, just add about an hour of walking to and from places, with very minimal dialogue and there you have it. The full length movie! Ta Da! Really the parts you see in the preview are pretty fun to watch when they're drawn out a couple more minutes, but they aren't much different. With such great actors as John Malkovich and Josh Brolin, you'd expect a little more, even from a movie like this. One plus though, was the fact that the movie was only about an hour and fifteen minutes long. Something i found a bit strange, since most comic book movies these days tend to lean more towards the three hour mark (i.e.- Watchmen) So bottom line, if you liked the preview, i'd leave it to that and not waste the $10 it costs to see this in the theater. Rent it on DVD in a few months, because i guarantee it won't be in theaters long.
