3:10 was a good western and I enjoyed it, but hard to say it was the best of all time.

"have they heard of a happy ending?"
"Is a little residual joy too much to ask?"

Juno was great, that's one of the few exceptions that I've liked the ending in recent releases.

damn.. not been watching many movies for the last 6 months, waiting to get my home theater. You've gotta put big SPOILER warnings up before you give away the ending to some of the biggest movies of the last year! Guess I can cancel all the stuff I bought this week lol

I thought 3:10 was just Ok. The acting was good. The sets were awesome - very believeable. I also liked the supporting villian. Very cool character. However, it felt short and a bit disconnected. I don't know, maybe Russell Crowe played the bad guy too "nice," but I didn't buy that he was this ruthless killer so much. Especially when he decided that he was going to help Christian Bale's character sort of complete his mission.
Maybe if they had more indians, or a more believeable gun fight at the end of the movie. It's like they conscripted a bunch of storm troopers (who aim poorly) to play the extras out to get CHristian Bale. I just think the danger feel could have been amped up here a bit.
On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give a 6, but will never watch it again. "6" because it was a "good" movie, but not "great" and no scenes stuck out at me that said, Oh, you gotta watch this again. I've seen better Westerns (Tombstone, even Young Guns for sheer entertainment), though.
