Very well executed

Beautiful, moving film.

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

...is the basic purpose for see it. because it is one of many films about revenger and used as vehicle for not bad special effects. familiar name of actors, crumbs of classic western, few eccentric ideas. and it is enough for an easy show for everyone. nothing surprising, nothing too high. only fire, a crazy plan, John Malkovich and Alan Quinn as decent president Grant. and , sure, memories. about lonely revengers, not good, not bad, with terrible experiences in past and obscure future, invincible but good pellow for large sort of pains. so, fun. in large slices.

"Jonah Hex" stars Josh Brolin as the titular character whose a rather disfigured bounty hunter in the Old West of the late 19th century. He is grizzled, worn-down and expressionless with a knack of hunting down anyone and often succeeds. Having stare in the face of death and jumping over the hurdles, his status is virtually untouchable. Hex has the ability to interact with the living and with the deceased. A natural lone wolf, Hex's only human companion is an equally down-trodden young lady named Lily (Megan Fox) who's time spent in a brothel has left her in a woeful disposition. Hex's past is starting to tap on his shoulders as the US Military persuades him into some negotiation deals he just can't say no to. Rather be fined on many warrants placed upon him, he must take down an evil Confederate soldier named General Quentin Turnbull (John Malkovich) who takes complete responsibility for the annihilation of his entire family and destroying his face with the help of a branding iron. Turnbull is joined by a platoon of fellow soldier to join the party and the party won't be over until Hex is worm chow. Based on iconic superhero character off of DC comics, "Jonah Hex" is a lone man's journey to get vengeance in an epic battle of good against evil. I knew walking into the theatres I had low expectations. However this movie took me by surprise. This movie sunk to the lowest denominator as one of the worst superhero adapted film ever made. In fact I never thought I'd live this day to ever utter such words, but the 2004 travesty "Catwoman" was actually better than this bucket of slop. Sure it's a simple done to death story of a perpetually scarred Confederate soldier settling the score against a tyrannical general after the merciless murder of his wife and son. The culprit is a fellow Confederate soldier who also wants Hex to pay for the murder of his own son during the infamous Civil War. Cut to ten years later in 1876, the centennial year of America's existence, Turnbull has conjured up a destructive weapon that will eradicate the entire United States. Oh God! Help me out please!Where to begin? This movie is truly awful I almost did an unlikely thing by walking out. It was that bad. The performances were some of the absolute worst even from the performers I usually praise. Josh Brolin's complexion looks contrived and superficial and his backstory has been done to death. John Malkovich what were you thinking? You're one of the best performers in our industry and you chose this movie over other movies you could have been in. I'm surprised at you. And as for you Megan Fox, please leave Hollywood to the actors because you are not one of them. You may have a pretty face to bad acting talents don't come with the package. What really kept me from leaving the theatre was that this movie was 80 minutes long.I won't go over any elaborate details here, but in a nutshell, "Jonah Hex" was an absolute abomination. And though the character was taken out of a comic book, the audience would never think it through because it was quite unconvincing. At least Jonah Hex isn't sporting spandex tights and a cape. It's already a travesty without the BS. "Mystery Science Theater 3000" would have fun grilling this awful turd.

The U.S. military makes a scarred bounty hunter with warrants on his own head an offer he cannot refuse: in exchange for his freedom, he must stop a terrorist who is ready to unleash Hell on Earth. The Problem with Jonah Hex is that is a pretty forgettable film 81 minutes of absolutely nothing, nothing really memorable and the cast was OK or average at best Michael Fassbender was easily the best part of the movie alongside Josh Brolin was makes a good Jonah Hex and their fight was pretty cool. John Malkovich worked as a bad guy in Con Air in this one not that much and Megan Fox isn't that much into this film so don't worry, Will Arnett is forgettable and he shouldn't be even in the film Michael Shannon has a small cameo and it's not that great thank god for Man of Steel honestly and even the dude from Ghost Rider has a small role and it's not that great. Jeffrey Dean Morgan also plays a dead guy he has basically made a great DC career by playing dead men The Comedian & Thomas Wayne. Anyways although it has moments that make no freaking sense that reminds me of Ghost Rider and the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen but there are good things with the film that snake guy was creepy as hell, Jonah Hex dream sequence with the crow coming out of his mouth pretty badass, flame thrower even Fox has some moments to shine not a Catwoman type of film but it's not a Dark Knight type of a film also it's clearly that Studios and bad direction killed the film where it could easily make a whole franchise out of this just look Guardians of the Galaxy for instance another big problem was that the director directed previously a kids movie named Horton and then the 2013 Free Birds he was even in Animation Department in films such as Toy Story & Toy Story 2 so you can easily see that a director of this kind is wrong for a DC Dark comic book but honestly i enjoyed the film it was better than Batman & Robin it the sense of being serious but in terms of being fun Bat-Nipples the movie was better i give it a 6.5 out of 10.

Jonah Hex (2010): Dir: Jimmy Hayward / Cast: Josh Brolin, John Malkovich, Megan Fox, Michael Fassbender, Will Arnett: Obscure comic book superhero made into an embarrassing showcase and deserving box office bomb. Jonah Hex has the ability to communicate with dead people after being put to death himself. He was forced to watch his wife and son burn to death. Now he wants revenge on those responsible. Directed to uninspired heights by Jimmy Hayward with superb special effects and facial makeup on Josh Brolin as Hex. Brolin is basically a one man killing machine as Hex and nothing more. John Malkovich is wasted as a cardboard villain threatening mankind with a doomsday device. Can he not come up with a better plan? It is depressing witnessing an actor of Malkovich's calibre wasted in shameless world domination schemes that were made fun of in Austin Powers. Megan Fox is fetching yet laughable as a feisty prostitute. She is yet another one of these women whom appears totally sexual yet dislikes the attention and when pressured she waves a knife about as to make viewers believe that she is tough as oppose to a joke. Michael Fassbender also appears for all the good it will do him. Will Arnett enlist in Jonah Hex's services but what he should have done is enlist in an agent that doesn't dupe him into projects like this. Superhero films are usually the item of profit but when viewers are mostly unfamiliar with it then the filmmakers are potentially kicking themselves in the ass by even thinking it will be a hit. The result is an idiotic pointless contraption should be hexed with a hatchet. Score: 2 / 10
