YMMV / Jonah Hex (2010)

• Awesome Music: Provided by freaking Mastodon!
• Complete Monster: Burke is the right-hand man of Quentin Turnbull, and matches his boss's emotionless cruelty with sheer psychopathic sadism. Assisting Turnbull in all of his crimes, Burke personally, and happily, burns Jonah Hex's wife and son alive, then holds Hex in place to be branded by Turnbull and left for dead. Fully aware, and approving, of Turnbull's plans to use his super weapon to wipe out thousands of innocents, Burke blows up an entire train to obtain parts for said weapon, killing the dozens of soldiers, citizens, and children on board, and later massacres the population of a small town to acquire the ammunition for Turnbull's super weapon. Kidnapping Hex's Love Interest Lilah to use as a hostage, Burke takes sadistic glee in smacking her around; threatens innocents with death for kicks; and regularly taunts Jonah about his family's deaths. Dying while laughing at Hex's misfortune, Burke was a homicidal lunatic who seemed to only work with Turnbull to satisfy his lust for sadism and mass murder.
• It's Short, So It Sucks!: One of the major criticisms against the film is its 81 minute runtime (with about nine minutes of that being credits). Probably doesn't help that all of its action movie competitors are closer to 2 hours.
• Special Effect Failure: While Jonah's disfigurement is somewhat of an impossibility to recreate through makeup, the film's attempt is pretty unimpressive to say the least.
• Took the Bad Film Seriously: Josh Brolin is undoubtedly the highlight of the movie, actually putting in a sincere effort.
