Counting Bullets

I generally don't select movies with such low ratings, but I was at someone else's house who likes westerns and wanted to see a free movie. I gamely sat through this truly terrible movie to be polite, thank goodness it only ran 73 minutes. The acting was truly atrocious, the action scenes were cringeworthy, and the plot was just plain stupid. This seemed like a college film project tbh. The older lieutenant came the closest to actual acting. I can't decide if the younger lieutenant, the injured soldier, or the scout was the worst. Really a toss up. This is easily THE WORST movie I have ever suffered through. And I am 53 with many movies under my belt. Do not subject yourself to this movie. You have been warned. The 10 ratings are fake.

I like Westerns of the 1940s-1970s and thought that "Counting Bullets" compared well with them. I assume that most of those involved were amateurs, and if so then theirs was a commendable effort. Another reviewer has mentioned the curiosity of the patrol not retrieving the weapons of ammunition of the killed Comancheros, and nor did it seem to take much in the way of supplies. And the two meaningful conversations between beleaguered members of the patrol went on a bit. Good photography. Easily worth a six, I've given it seven.

Wow, this movie was horrible, at first I thought it was a farce, like a mock comedy western, but it was quickly apparent that not much time was taken into the making of this film. The actors are horrible, the physical acting is unbearable to watch and cringeworthy. The actors characters/lines are barely put together and lack depth. Where's the action?

There's several things I enjoyed about Counting Bullets. Original formula, good acting and fantastic scenery. My favorite part was the soundtrack. It felt like a cross between Elmer Bernstein and Spaghetti Westerns while still being original.

Enjoyed this one. Story and character development was great. Great job in writing this one.

Liked the storyline. At first I didn't like Lt. Lowe, but he grew on me.

Of the twelve westerns so far, this is the one my kids want to watch over and over. John Marrs and Shannon Williams really shine in this film. They are both excellent actors and a joy to watch work. Filmed under duress during Covid-19 lockdown, what Travis Mills and crew accomplished last year was nothing short of amazing. Filmed in the Dragoon mountain range in Arizona, the scenery is beautiful and authentic to the story, will watch again!

Bad acting, bad film work, bad bad bad I could not get past the first 30 minutes of this rubbish film and went to a different movie to watch.

The landscape was rugged, beautiful, and made a perfect background for the men who struggled for their lives.

Four fake reviews contributed by the movie makers relatives, colleagues or friends, tried to cheat people to pick out this terrible western genre garbage from the DVD garbage bin in a supermarket renting machine. Watchable, at least? If you were in jail and there's only one movie that was shown in the public roaming area, and you've got nowhere to go, then watch it. What amazed me as a myth is why so many moronic investors would waste their money to so many horrible movies? Many production budgets were over several millions and even more, but their global box office records only shown couple of thousand dollars, sometimes, even in the 5 figure range. Why not used that money to invest in other ventures instead of making movies?
