Review | 'The Unholy Trinity' is far from the best of the West
Briefly

"The Unholy Trinity" serves as a throwback to classic B Westerns, featuring an underdeveloped plot and a string of clichés. Starring Pierce Brosnan as Sheriff Gabriel Dove, the film follows a young man's quest for vengeance in a small Montana town rife with danger and confusion. With a looming lynching of a Blackfoot woman and Samuel L. Jackson's quirky mystery man character, the film's narrative becomes convoluted. The review ultimately suggests that while the film attempts to engage with classic themes, it fails to do so meaningfully, leaving audiences questioning its significance.
"The Unholy Trinity" is a reminder that they don't make 'em like they used to - and maybe that's a good thing.
A pokey, low-budget Western enlivened by a couple of aging stars happily hamming it up, it's the kind of B movie they used to program before the feature.
The best Westerns have always used those clichés as a foundation for examining human nature amid the clash of civilization and our more brutal impulses.
You’re not sure who shot whom or why you should care.
