I do not generally enjoy Westerns, but this one is still an alright film, considering the year... honestly, it's quite possibly a great film if you DO generally enjoy Westerns. The acting is good, the story is simple and linear, but it's about an hour and a half too long for me.
The beginning is drawn out character building and backstory for our protagonist; the good stuff really starts in the middle, then it hits another long flatline into boringsville until very near the end, where we get more character dimension for our leads, and some delightful enlightenment for our antagonist.
It's worth the watch if you really like Westerns, and for everyone else, maybe a quick scrub through with attention paid to the first 5 minutes and the last 10.
