If you like 20's-era gangster movies that feature a "modern" 90's action hero... tada! Bruce Willis puts on his dapperest attire to play this gunslinger who gets caught up in a mob war in Jericho, Texas during prohibition. There are prostitutes, lots of guns, and some gratuitous violence. Delicious!
For me, the action is fun. And Willis is always good at the gritty hero-who's-no-hero role, so that works. But the plot feels a little convuluded at times. There's some chicks involved that Willis tries to save, but mostly he destroys all the mobsters to save his own neck.
And yeah, he's the "last man standing" in case you were wondering.
