Directed by Sean McEwen, American Outlaws is based on the real-life events of a bank robbery and other associated felonies committed by three siblings, Dylan, Lee-Grace, and Ryan Dougherty. Starring Emory Cohen, Sam Strike, and India Eisley in the lead roles, the film is based on the 2012 case of the Dougherty siblings, who took the police on an 8-day chase after committing a string of felonies. The movie dramatizes certain incidents, but, in the end, it’s a deeper look into the hollow façade of the ‘American’ way of life, where the poor are always treated as second-class citizens, leading to children growing up with a lot of anger and issues in their hearts. Here’s everything that happens in the 2023 action thriller American Outlaws.

“The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford” is widely regarded as both one of the best western films of the 21st century and one of the most prominent recent examples of a studio interfering with a great movie.
Andrew Dominik’s moody, contemplative western has more in common with Terrence Malick than John Ford or Howard Hawks, but there are plenty of stories of Warner Bros. trying to make the film more mainstream. However, despite a brutal editing process, Dominik was still able to release a film that illustrated his vision and earned two Oscar nominations.
But recently, the film’s production team has been speaking out about a rumored cut of the film that is even longer than the 160-minute version that hit theaters. Speaking to Collider, cinematographer Roger Deakins recently caught cinephiles’ attention when he recalled watching this longer version of the film, even if...

You know what everyone could use in the sweltering summer months? A nice, cold glass of…anime. At least that’s the particular theme that comes up in Netflix’s list of new releases for June 2021.
Netflix has been quietly expanding their anime offerings for awhile now but June is a particularly anime-heavy month. The absolutely metal sounding Record of Ragnarok arrives this month. So too do parts 1 and 2 of the newest Sailor Moon film on June 3 and Godzilla Singular Point on June 24.

The tables turned on Roger and James Deakins on this week’s episode of the “Team Deakins” podcast as the two collaborators got interviewed by Oscar-nominated cinematographer Greig Fraser about the making of Andrew Dominik’s 2007 revisionist Western drama “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.” The original four-hour cut of “Jesse James” got trimmed down to a 160-minute theatrical cut because of studio notes. For Deakins, the 240-minute “Jesse James” was far superior but less commercial for Warner Bros.
“There was a four-hour cut that I actually loved,” Deakins said. “I read somewhere that it was shown at the Venice Film Festival in its four-hour version, but it doesn’t exist now, and that’s a shame. The studio’s problem was they thought there’d be more train robberies, and Brad Pitt would be more of a traditional Western outlaw. And when Brad was killed...

More than two years since its December 2017 release, Star Wars: The Last Jedi is still controversial. In some it inspires passion, in others loathing. Even now, merely mentioning the movie can guarantee some angry responses below-the-line. Of course, The Rise of Skywalker recently stoked the fires of its controversy when it apparently went out of its way to retcon many of The Last Jedi’s revelations, a tactic which resulted in the worst-reviewed Star Wars movie to date.
A new study from RaveReviews.org has now released a list of The Most Divisive Movies of All Time though and the top five in ascending order are: Star Wars: The Last Jedi, American Outlaws, Hale County This Morning, This Evening, Hannah Gadsby: Nanette and, at number one, Knock Down the House. Their rationale for this ranking is the difference between the Rotten Tomatoes critic and audience score, with Knock Down the House...

Andrew Dominik’s 2007 historical epic “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford” was a flop for Warner Bros. at the box office, grossing just under $4 million domestically against a $30 million production budget. The movie’s $15 million worldwide total wasn’t great either. In the year’s since, “Jesse James” has emerged as a cult favorite thanks to its strong central performance from Brad Pitt and its cinematography by Roger Deakins. The Dp’s work on the film is often credited as some of the best cinematography of the 21st century. In a new interview with Collider, Deakins reveals there is an over three-hour “Jesse James” cut he hopes will get a release.
“It should be [on Criterion],” Deakins said. “I would really like to see the long version, the first cut that I saw, released on Criterion. That’s what I’d hope for. It was over three hours.

In the future, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford will be regarded as a classic. It’s a haunting epic packed with beauty and brutality thanks to Roger Deakins‘s finest cinematography, Brad Pitt‘s best performance to date, and a narrative that conforms to zero biopic conventions. However, at the time of its release writer/director Andrew Dominik‘s adaptation was a box office dud, grossing less than $4m across the globe on a $36m budget. A part of the problem was that it wasn’t the Jesse James movie Warner Bros. wanted. They were thinking Unforgiven, not two and a half hours of obsession and regret. Heck, they probably would’ve preferred American Outlaws, the other recent financial (and creative) misfire starring Colin Farrell as a plucky Jesse James. To a degree, that’s fair on the studio’s part: wanting the most commercial movie possible from what’s now considered...

Dead Man Dies the Death: Farrell and 2013 have another major box-office bomb Directed by Niels Arden Oplev, best known for the Swedish-made blockbuster The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and starring Colin Farrell, whose box-office clout has diminished quite a bit in recent years following a whole string of box-office disappointments or downright disasters, the revenge thriller Dead Man Down has been turned into the most recent 2013 box-office disaster. The R-rated film, which also stars the Swedish film's Dragon-Tattooed girl, Noomi Rapace, opened with an embarrassing $5.35 million at 2,188 site, averaging a measly $2,445 per location as per studio (FilmDistrict) estimates found on the web site Box Office Mojo. (Pictured above: Colin Farrell holds his ground next to Noomi Rapace in Dead Man Down.) Expect the latest disappointing FilmDistrict release to vanish from Us and Canadian screens in the next couple of weeks; indeed, Farrell's action flick will be extremely lucky if...

Ignoring the fact that Colin Farrell's name sounds just about as Irish as it gets, there's still a shred of possibility that the southern drawl he spits as Jesse James throughout "American Outlaws" actually fooled a few theatergoers into thinking that this bushy-eyebrowed ladykiller was actually born a stars n' stripes yankee.
Let's face it: Farrell -- who currently stars in the new crime thriller "Dead Man Down" -- is a verbal chameleon, a man who has effortlessly toggled the fader on his pipes between his real Dublin-derived brogue and a convincing down-home All-American inflection throughout his two-decade-long career. Practically every role he's taken on has fit somewhere between those two points, but you'd have to subject yourself to a full-on Farrell filmography marathon to know just where each film ranks within his verbal spectrum. Accent charting clearly can't be accomplished overnight, especially when Colin Farrell is involved.

U.S. And Canada/Opening Wide Jonah Hex: Josh Brolin is a disfigured half-zombie gunfighter in the weird Old West. And it’s kinda not a comedy. [trailer] review to come If you can’t make it to the multiplex, try: • The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.: The Complete Series (1993): The sadly short-lived Fox TV series is the ultimate in Western science-fantasy comedy. Plus it stars Bruce Campbell, which is never bad. • Young Guns (1988): As overblown as a Bon Jovi music video, and dumb as a bag of rocks. And it’s still kinda better than Jonah Hex. • American Outlaws (2001): It’s the Western as cheesy beefcake, which also makes it more entertaining than Hex. • No Country for Old Men (2007): For more Josh Brolin in the new West, though here his character is of a considerably dumber bent. Toy Story 3: Woody and Buzz and the gang are back.

There's not much news just yet on the inevitably awesome Canadian production known as The Dog Squad 3D, but here at Cinematical we like to cover only the biggest and most important film stories, so we'll be following this one on a daily basis. According to The Hollywood Reporter, ContentFilm has snagged worldwide rights to, yes, The Dog Squad 3D, and the live-action kiddie comedy will shoot up north later this year.
What filmmakers would dare to tackle such a cinematic challenge? Screenwriter Stephen Carpenter (Blue Streak, The Man), producer Rick Benattar (The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, The Lost Boys 2: The Tribe), and director Les Mayfield, an auteur whose credits include not only the two Carpenter screenplays mentioned above, but also silver screen masterworks like American Outlaws, Flubber, and Encino Man. I seriously cannot wait to see this movie.

Scott Caan and Colin Farrell in American Outlaws
Photo: Warner Bros. I can guess what you must be thinking. A cowboy movie? With Colin Farrell? Yes, you're right. It was an unknown Irishman playing a classic American cowboy--and Jesse James, to boot. It's everything wrong, and perhaps that's why, seven years ago when I first heard about it, I was immediately intrigued. Unless watching gay cowboys who are in love with each other, I've never been that much of a Western fan. I'm not saying that to immediately discredit any words I might share about this particular Western (though that might be the result). I'm saying it, in fact, to bolster the film's credibility. It didn't spin itself as an historical drama. It's a popcorn flick with some horses thrown in, and if you think of it that way, you're already saddled up for a smoother ride. But if you need further convincing,...

All this weekend! 5 movies I’m psyched for in December and 5 reasons why. No. 5: The Spirit [opens in the U.S. on December 25, and in the U.K. on January 1, 2009]. 1. Gabriel Macht. He is so cute. Plus, after years of solid yeoman’s work in such flicks as American Outlaws and The Recruit and The Good Shepherd, he’s due his moment in the spotlight. He at least deserves this chance at a franchise. Also: the red tie is fantabulous. 2. Frank Miller. I know, I know: I’m a girl, and so I’m not supposed to like shit like 300 and Sin City. But I do. Deal with it.
