Yksinäinen kulkuri Paul (Ethan Hawke) saapuu texasilaiseen unohdettuun Dentonin kaupunkiin, jota paikalliset nimittävät "väkivallan laaksoksi". Siellä hän joutuu kahnaukseen väärän miehen, kaupungin pitkävihaisen šeriffn (John Travolta, Pulp Fiction) häiriköivän pojan Gillyn (James Ransone) kanssa. Paulin ja Gillyn välisen jännitteen kasvaessa väistämätön väkivalta käynnistää katastrofaalisen ketjureaktion. Pian koko kaupunki tempautuu veriseen koston kierteeseen, jonka yltymistä on mahdotonta estää. (Universal Sony Pictures HE Fin.)

"Those men left me with nothing. I'm gonna leave them with less." In other words, they killed my dog, and I have no one to talk to. So before I kill you, I'll have a chat with you. The reception of Wild West West depends on your genre expectations. There's a lot of talking, a female element, and a comical role played by the oddly deformed Sheriff Travolta, who has clearly consumed more than a few quarter-pounders with cheese. This leaves room for ambivalence. However, this doesn’t apply to Jeff Grace's soundtrack, which successfully dresses up Morricone’s style in a modern duster.

It's evident that Ti West drew a lot of inspiration from Leone, but even though he took a wide aspect ratio and had good music, he didn't have a strong enough story, and there simply aren't characters worth investing in. The main character is okay, but the others are not. Travolta is boring, Taissa is unused, and the others just talk too much. Too bad. If this had turned out better, it would have been a great elevation of the western genre.
