Blackthorn 2011

Blackthorn (2011)    This is a continuation of a Butch Cassidy saga with Butch on one last adventure to meet his son for the first time.  It's been 20 years since he was thought to have perished in a violent gun fight and he has just learned he has a son in the U.S.  He's in Bolivia where he meets up with a Spaniard who has robbed a mine which causes Butch a lot of trouble.
    There isn't much to like or draw your interest in this movie.  It's just one dragged out scenario after another which feels like you are viewing it through burlap.  3* (This movie is OK)

102 min, Drama directed by Mateo Gil with Sam Shepard, Eduardo Noriega, Stephen Rea, Magaly Solier, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Pedraic Deleaney.

Note:  Blockbuster 4*, imdb 6.6 out of 10,  69% both critic and audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
