Jonah Hex (2010)

Everyone thinks Meghan Fox is hot, I'll admit that I think she is extremely hot but does that translate into whether she's a good actress. Well, let us see as she stars alongside Josh Brolin (No Country For Old Men). She doesn't do a bad job of playing a prostitute who has the hots for Jonah Hex (Brolin), a former Confederate soldier turned bounty hunter with a severely scarred face. Jonah Hex was left for dead after Turnbull (John Malkovich) killed his family and is now trying to wage war against the US. It's up to Jonah to capture Turnbull and Jonah is the right man for the job as he takes no prisoners. The movie also stars Wes Bentley (American Beauty), Will Arnett (Let's Go To Prison), Michael Shannon (Boardwalk Empire), and Michael Fassbender (Inglorious Basterds) in the film based off of the DC comic. I give the movie a B- because it wasn't the best superhero movie but for the reason that he was different than all of the other usual superheroes. Jonah Hex personifies the idea of the anti-hero and that's what I loved about this film. Jonah Hex lives by his own rules and does what he wants to do whether it's the right thing to do or not.
