Unforgiven (1992)

William Munny is a dreaded killer who has gone sober due to the influence of his dead wife and two kids, and is now a pig farmer. He isn't exactly prospering and is forced to choose an assignment where he would get some money. He has to kill a couple of cowboys who had cut up a whore in Big Whiskey, Wyoming. This place is controlled by a dictator like guy called Little Bill who doesn't allow outsiders to come in with firearms. The other whores are ready to pay 1000$ for anyone who can kill those two cowboys.

William is accompanied by his old partner, Ned and a young and vulnerable man named 'The Schofield Kid', who actually brings the job to Will in the first place.

Do the trio manage to kill the couple of cowboys and get their share of the money? Do they return back home safe or is there loss of life? Watch the flick to find out.

The film is shot very well thanks to the scenic locations and the constant rain effects. The movie moves along slowly though the plot is setup very early.

Towards the end, old Clint lords over the movie with his brooding screen presence, punch lines and aggressive swagger. Morgan Freeman as Ned Logan makes a big mark as the loyal partner who will stay by Will at all times. Gene Hackman is terrific as the dreadful Little Bill. You just start hating this man due to his demonic ways. Jaimz Woolvett as the vulnerable disrespectful young brat who later realizes that the 'killing' life is not meant for him, is impressive too.

The movie has a simple revenge plot and it really picks up only in the end. The movie is a bit over-rated I believe. Anyway anything that is directed, acted and produced by the legendary Clint Eastwood automatically becomes special. The movie won 4 Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director. Anything for Clint!
