The Duel (2016)
Heart of Darkness

This is a short review because it is a simple adaptation. Like Outland was High Noon in space, The Duel is Apocalypse Now in the old West.
I will admit that I am a big fan of Woody Harrelson. As usual, he does not disappoint.
The rest of the cast is passable. There are faces here and there that you will recognize, but otherwise it seems the money on this movie was spent on Harrelson and Hemsworth. Honestly, I cannot tell if the writing is not particularly engrossing or if it seems uninspired because we know the story.
Either way, if you want a fast paced Western, this is not for you. If you want a slow, methodical and unnecessarily convoluted story featuring a good actor...you might like it.
