    Take away the violence, ribald humor and salty language, and 800 Bullets is actually a touching tale about family, love and honor.

    Has funny moments, but it also has a lot of drag time.

    Though the high-noon climax drags somewhat, Álex de la Iglesia's charming comedy celebrates the resilient power of dreams, memories, and the movies.

    It thinks it's cute, but it's as charming as an old drunk going on about how he knew Eastwood back in the day.
