Never Grow Old is about a town that becomes a den of vice after vicious outlaw Dutch Albert and his gang arrive and begin gunning down their opposition. Undertaker Patrick Tate must now choose between the blood money he makes burying the murderers' victims and the threats he and his family face as the death toll continues to rise.
I love westerns . Behind gangster movies it is probably my favourite genre but sadly this one probably won't stay in the memory for too long .
It has all the hallmarks you would hope for . John Cusack plays the bad guy who's ruined the once religious town ( some would argue improves it ) and he does a pretty good job . The biggest problem is that our so called hero of the story is so dull. I'm not sure if it's Emile Hirsch's fault or script but I wasn't too bothered about what happens to him and especially his nagging wife .
It's not all bad though . This looks great , despite the sun never being out , and it never drags on the way to it's inevitable conclusion but it's one of those films that won't take long to be confined to metaphorical bargain bin with all the other average B movies .
