6 More Overlooked Films of the 2000s

4. Open Range

The 2000s weren't very kind to westerns. There were some quality ones, like 3:10 to Yuma and Appaloosa, but for the most part there weren't many to be found. Open Range, starring Robert Duvall and Kevin Costner, is a great western. Duvall is great playing a role similar to the one he did for Lonesome Dove, and Kevin Costner actually looks he is enjoying himself, which is pretty rare with his recent work. It's fairly conventional, but it's also fun, and the final shootout is one of my favorites. If you're not a fan of westerns, this movie won't make you a convert. But if westerns are your thing, this is one for you to check out.
