This was a very intriguing movie, for the most part. I liked the fact that the action, although violent at times, was not overdone. Most of the movie is pretty low-key.What I didn't care for was our hero's wife, who was way too big-city-hard looking and profane to be some small-town country girl who would marry such a nice guy as "Tom."William Hurt gets third billing in the film but only shows up with 14 minutes left! Granted, his role is a memorable one, however. Ed Harris also had few lines for someone who gets good billing. Another guy I thought was pretty cool was the sheriff, played by Peter MacNeill. He had bigger roles than Harris or Hurt but got no billing. Go figure.Overall, this was a unique film and one I would would watch again.
