On the podcast this week, Steven \\u201cThe Man\\u201d Reyes and Sean are getting dusty and bloody while talking about the incredible John Hillcoat Australian western, The Proposition.

There are so many guns in this movie! Jeez, this one starts with a bang. Actually, more like several hundred bangs and they just keep coming throughout the entire movie. We\\u2019re pretty horrified by the constant violence that took place in this movie and couldn\\u2019t be more glad that we live in a time when we don\\u2019t have to worry as much about dying in a flurry of Australian bullets. Still doesn\\u2019t stop us from talking about guns to no end.

Who can blame us? There are so many guns in this movie!

Story-wise, though, The Proposition is simple on the surface but has a depth and complexity in its characters that keeps you invested, even through its violence. It can be summed up pretty simply: A man has to find his murderous older brother so he can save his younger brother\\u2019s life. Oh, and everyone\\u2019s sweaty.

It\\u2019s a slow burn kind of film, but it never lets up. The action is intense, the performances are on another level, and the production is immaculate. It\\u2019s a film that\\u2019s definitely worth seeing at least once, so long as you can stomach a fair amount of violence.

And guns. Did we mention there are a lot of guns?
