Movie Review: "The Magnificent 7" (2016)

The Magnificent Seven is a 2016 American Western action film directed by Antoine Fuqua and written by Nic Pizzolatto and Richard Wenk. It is a reimagination of the 1960 western film of the same name, which in turn was a remake of the 1954 Japanese film Seven Samurai. The film stars Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt, Ethan Hawke, Vincent D'Onofrio, Lee Byung-hun, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Martin Sensmeier, Haley Bennett and Peter Sarsgaard. It is the final film of composer James Horner, who died the previous year after composing a part of the score; his friend Simon Franglen completed the music.

I went to see this movie with an open mind. I did not know it was a remake, until a channel on Dish Network promoted they were going to show it. I have not seen the original, my parents have. I thought the movie was great. It was full of action and violence that made the film worth it. The director did a great job with this film. I would go see it again if there was nothing else worth seeing.
