“With the exception of Jodorowsky’s brilliant El Topo, few could find a way around the contrasting combination of clipped heroics and glimpsed Hell in modern westerns. That is, until now. To call Legend of God’s Gun genius would be a gross understatement. For filmmakers, musicians, and friends Mike Bruce and Kirkpatrick Thomas – this magnificent film is a nothing less than a brilliant fever dream filtered through the latest high tech post-production optical candy factories to produce one of the most original and unforgettable films of today.”
High Times Magazine
“Cowboy up with this acid western…part psychedelic rock video, part spaghetti western, part hallucination – all art and cult, with a knockout tag-team of delirious sights and hip sounds. Well worth the effort to hunt down and watch. The Legend of God’s Gun,” along with genuine skill and purpose, makes for a film that is not only exciting, but worth getting excited about. It’s a victory for filmmaking outside the studio system. Unapologetically fun, cinematically clever, “The Legend of God’s Gun” has many parts, but is 100% visionary.”
Ink & Ashes Magazine
“Guaranteed to burn a blissful place in the back of your retinas while recalling every retro reevaluation of the Wild West paradigm, The Legend of God’s Gun is a classic waiting to be discovered. In a word – STUNNING. This is an amazing looking movie, given some imaginative wear and tear thanks to purposeful grain, fake smudges, consistent dirt and age spots, and several emulsion ‘scars’ running down the length of the frame. The colors – or occasional lack thereof – literally explode off the screen, and the amount of detail and contrast clarity is startling.”
Bill Gibron, DVD Talk.com
“You can feel and taste the dust from the first frame, the characters have a cool, laconic feel to them, the style is so idiosyncratic and fun that a sequel is a forgone conclusion, The Legend of God’s Gun is a rare aural and visual feast not to be missed…”
Florence Achery, Portland Mercury
“Unless you like films that look bad, sound bad, and suck hard, treat this one like a crack head with herpes and avoid it.”
Donny Broussard, Arrow in the Head.com
“…a cinematic experience like no other. A real feast for the eyes that creates an adrenaline rush that I have not felt in some time. I highly recommend owning this artistic gem that jumps off the screen with its amazing cinematography that is candy to the eyes.”
