Review of 8 Million Ways to Die (1986) by Stephen E — 12 Mar 2012
Or as I like to call it Eight Million ways to fall asleep.
Given the talent involved here its a shame this film is such a crushing bore,with a plot that never gets going and Ashby just giving up directing and giving us a lumpy and stupid thriller.
Jeff Bridges is operhaps the only reason you should see this film as the rest of it is just so pointless after an hour you start to lose the will to live .
Andy Garcia gets a part so one dimensional he looks like he will dissapear under the weight of cliche ,and everything else has been done a thousand times better somwhere else in the mid eighties most notable being To Live And Die In LA .
A sad end to the directors career and one film it wise to avoid, period.
