In 1882, in the town of Old Stump,Arizona,timidsheep farmerAlbert Stark's girlfriend, Louise, breaks up with him because of his refusal to defend himself in a duel. He prepares to migrate toSan Francisco,believing that thefrontieroffers nothing for him.

Meanwhile, infamous outlaw Clinch Leatherwood shoots and kills an old prospector over a singlegold nugget.He orders his right-hand man Lewis to escort his wife Anna to Old Stump while he continues his banditry.

Lewis and Anna arrive in Old Stump under the guise of siblings looking to build a farm, but he is arrested for shooting the pastor's son in a saloon fight. During the brawl, Albert saves Anna from being crushed to death; they become close friends.

Attending the county fair, Louise's arrogant new boyfriend Foy challenges Albert to a shooting contest. Albert loses, but Anna steps in and defeats him. He publicly humiliates Albert, who impulsively challenges Foy to a duel the next day. Knowing that Albert would lose to Foy, Anna suggests that theyduelin a week's time to win back Louise. Anna then spends the week teaching Albert how to shoot.

During a barn dance the night before the duel, Anna slips alaxativeinto Foy'swhiskey.After leaving the dance, Albert and she kiss before heading home. After breaking out of jail and murdering the sheriff, Lewis observes their kiss and reports it to Clinch. On the day of the duel, Foy arrives late and has severediarrheafrom the laxative he had unknowingly ingested.

Albert, who has decided that Louise is not worth fighting for, forfeits anyway. He retires to the saloon, but Clinch arrives and reveals that Anna is his wife, threatening to kill more people unless his wife's lover duels him the next day.

Later, Clinch confronts Anna by demanding that she reveal Albert's name and his whereabouts, or he will kill Plugger, the old prospector's dog that Anna befriended after the old prospector's death. He tries torapeher, but she knocks him unconscious with a rock and escapes.

Anna returns to Albert's farm to warn him about Clinch, but Albert chastises her for lying to him. Clinch, having regained consciousness, tracks her down to the farm, but Albert helps her escape; he then escapes himself.

While fleeing, Albert is captured by a tribe ofApaches,who threaten to burn him alive. They spare him when he reveals that he can speak their language. They give him a bowl ofpeyote,which he drinks in its entirety, sending him flashing back to his birth and through painful events of his childhood before a vision of Anna makes him realize he loves her.

Meanwhile, Clinch recaptures Anna in town, but Albert returns to Old Stump and confronts him. He wounds Clinch with a bullet dipped inrattlesnakevenombefore his own gun is shot out of his hand but Albert stalls until Clinch dies. Louise attempts to win back Albert, but he rejects her and instead happily enters into a relationship with Anna. He also receives a bounty for killing Clinch, so he uses the money to buy more sheep.

In thepost-credits scene,Django Freemanarrives to challenge the offensive "Runaway Slave" game at the town fair's shooting gallery, but instead shoots the owner.

Development

edit

A Million Ways to Die in the Westoriginated as an inside joke between MacFarlane and co-writers Sulkin and Wild,[14]while they were watchingHang 'Em High(1968).[15]The joke evolved into "riffing on the idea of how dull, depressing, and dangerous it must have been to live in the Wild West."[14]MacFarlane, a lifelong fan of westerns, began researching the topic, using Jeff Guinn's nonfiction novel,The Last Gunfight: The Real Story of the Shootout at the O.K. Corral—And How It Changed the American Westas an "invaluable resource," and basis for many of the ways of dying in the film.[14]Various aspects of the film were inspired by western films. The decision to make Albert a sheepherder was inspired byMontana(1950) and his average, non-confrontational demeanor by3:10 to Yuma(1957).[16]Other westerns that inspired MacFarlane and the crew during writing includedOklahoma!(1955),The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance(1962), andEl Dorado(1966).[16]The film was first announced on December 3, 2012, marking MacFarlane's second foray into live-action directing, after 2012'sTed.[17]Tippett Studiowas hired to work on the film's visual effects.

Casting

edit

On January 30, 2013, it was announced thatCharlize Theronhad joined the film.[18]Theron later revealed that she "begged" for her role, as she wanted the opportunity to work in comedy.[19]On February 11, it was announcedAmanda Seyfriedhad joined the film.[20]On March 6, it was announcedLiam NeesonandGiovanni Ribisihad joined the film.[21]Neeson, who nearly always suppresses hisIrish accentwhen acting, agreed to play the part of Clinch only on the condition that he could use his Irish accent. In an interview onThe Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,Neeson remarked that he made this demand because an episode of MacFarlane'sFamily Guyhad previously made a joke out of the juxtaposition of Neeson playing a cowboy with an Irish accent.[22] On March 18, it was announced thatSarah Silvermanwas cast to play a prostitute in the film.[23]On May 10, it was announced that the film would be co-financed byMedia Rights CapitalandFuzzy Door Productions,along withBluegrass Filmsand distributed byUniversal Studios.[24]On May 11, 2013, it was announced thatNeil Patrick Harrishad joined the film.[25]On May 29, 2013, MacFarlane announced thatBill Maherhad joined the cast.[13]On February 21, 2014, he announced thatGilbert Gottfriedhad also joined the cast.[11]

Critical response

edit

A Million Ways to Die in the Westreceived mixed reviews from critics.[48][49]Review aggregation websiteRotten Tomatoesgave the film a 33% rating based on 212 reviews, with an average score of 4.90/10. The site's consensus states, "While it offers a few laughs and boasts a talented cast, Seth MacFarlane's overlong, aimlessA Million Ways to Die in the Westis a disappointingly scattershot affair. "[50]Another review aggregation website,Metacritic,gave a score of 44 out of 100, based on reviews from 43 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[48]Audiences surveyed byCinemaScoregave the film an average grade of "B" on an A+ to F scale; opening weekend demographics were 55% male and 72% over 25 years of age.[51]

Claudia Puig's review inUSA Todaywas largely positive, writing, "A Western with a contemporary sensibility and dialogue that sounds markedly modern,A Million Ways to Die in the Westis quintessential MacFarlane, at once silly and witty, juvenile and clever. "[52]Stephen Holden's review inThe New York Timeswas mainly neutral, calling the film "a live-action spinoff ofFamily Guy,with different characters. "[53]"While the whole thing feels weirdly miscalculated to me,A Million Ways to Die in the Westtweaks the formula just enough, delivers a few laughs and keeps the guest stars coming, "wroteSaloncolumnist Andrew O'Hehir.[54]Rafer Guzman ofNewsdayfound the film amusing, calling it "another example of MacFarlane's ability to mix poop jokes with romance, foul language with sweet sentiment, offensive humor with boyish charm."[55]

Scott Mendelson ofForbescommended MacFarlane's decision to make an unconventional western comedy, but summarized the film as "just ambitious enough for that to be genuinely disappointing."[56]Michael O'Sullivan atThe Washington Postwas mixed, deeming the film a "broad, wildly hit-or-miss satire," remarking that he found few of the jokes in the film funny.[57]"Spiritually, it's closer to a mid-range crowd-pleaser such asCity SlickersthanBlazing Saddles,too enamoured of genre convention to reach for the comic dynamite, "wrote Mike McCahill atThe Guardian.[58]

Michael Phillips of theChicago Tribunecriticized MacFarlane's acting and direction as: "A failure of craft. He can't direct action, or even handle scenery well. He can't set up a visual joke properly without resorting to head-butting and bone-crunching, and he doesn't know how, or when, to move his camera. He's not good enough as a romantic lead to anchor a picture."[59]Richard Corliss ofTimecalled the film a "sagebrush comedy whose visual grandeur and appealing actors get polluted by some astonishingly lazy writing."[60]Scott Foundas ofVarietyfound the film "overlong and uninspired," criticizing the film's "lazy writing," and MacFarlane's "surprisingly bland" comic performance.[61]

Rene Rodriguez of theMiami Heraldgave the film one star, commenting, "There are enough laughs scattered throughoutA Million Ways to Die in the Westthat while you're watching it, the movie seems like a passable comedy. By the time you get home, though, you can barely remember the jokes. "[62]John DeFore ofThe Hollywood Reportercriticized the film's running time: "Though the film is hardly laugh-free, its uneven jokes appear to have breezed through a very forgiving editing process."[63]Joe Morgenstern ofThe Wall Street Journaltoo found the film's length "exhausting," noting, "Some of it sputters, settling for smiles instead of laughs, and much of it flounders while the slapdash script searches [...] for ever more common denominators in toilet humor."[64]
