not sure if this was based on comics or computer games. Latter might explain its shortcomings a bit better. Daniel Craig as cowboy badman hero. Harrison Ford playing a supposedly evil cattle baron, not seen him on the wrong side before as far as I remember.
Captain America.
Better than some reviews had it. Certainly enjoyed it more than Ghost Rider. Enjoyable Hokum?

Harrison Ford turned to the Dark Side in "What Lies Beneath" with Michelle Pfieffer. Think Cowboys & Aliens was based on a graphic novel/comic book.
I really enjoyed Captain America. Kind of old school big adventure stuff that captured the period really well I thought. Joe Johnston made another period adventure (back in the 90's with the first wave of BIG super-hero flicks following the success of Tim Burton's Batman) that I think is an under-appreciated gem of a film in The Rocketeer. Capt America also had loads of Marvel geek stuff to enjoy. Great fun well made.
