I’m usually not a Western fan, but 3:10 to Yuma has a really great story.  And some really great actors, too.  Christian Bale is the good guy, down on his luck, desperate for money to save his home from the railroad.  Russell Crowe is the bad guy, freshly flush from a big stagecoach robbery, he slips up and gets caught in town without his gang.  Christian steps up and joins the posse to escort Russell to the 3:10 to Yuma, a train headed straight for prison.  And what a road trip this turns out to be!  Lots of action, edge-of-your-seat, hold-your-breath type of adventure.  Just may bring back the Western.  Teen boys will really like it.
