Just as he’s getting to know the citizens-including the mysterious Ella Swenson (Olivia Wilde) and cold-hearted cattle baron Woodrow Dolarhyde (Harrison Ford)-a phalanx of aliens attacks Absolution, abducting some of the townsfolk. The plot: It’s 1873, and amnesiac cowboy Jake Lonergan (Daniel Craig) arrives in the town of Absolution with a strange metal device on his wrist and no idea how it, or he, got there. And all that’s before you even get to the main attraction: Cowboys! AND! Aliens! With the deck stacked so absurdly in its favor, with all the possible ingredients to make the perfect summer blockbuster, how did it go so wrong? Ron Howard and Steven Spielberg were on board as producer and executive producer respectively. The cast boasted Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Olivia Wilde, Paul Dano, Sam Rockwell and Walton Goggins.
