Jake was annoying

I fully recant what I said about Jake as being “annoying.” I would, however, rather Jake be a little more toned down - personally speaking. I don’t object to the characterization - Jake’s character just stood out to me more so than any other major character. Immature I can agree with but he is not a brat. He isn’t unpleasant as the word “brat” implies. I would describe Jake with nothing more than “you-wild-kid-ya,” taking a line from another movie (as you said, we've known plenty of guys like this and every group has one).

Another thing: The statement about the "man with no name crap" IS crap.

I couldn't disagree more. His energy was infectious-the way he was swinging on the monkey bars-excuse, jail cell bars-while telling how he ended up in effect on death row was hilarious-capped perfectly by John Cleese's droll description of one of many people described in the altercation as "the dead one." The eager way he sympathizes and agrees with Cleese that he, too, had killed a man in a fair fight was funny, too. The simultaneous shooting of two bad guys at 45 degree angles was something I'd never seen before or since. And the one line that he delivers in a calm, understated, reflective was funny, too: "Gee, Paden, her old man ain't even cold yet!"

kC never was, never will be boring. He is sexy down to every toenail.
He is so good in comedy and in every genre.

I have always loved Kevin Costner and have never found him boring. He has made some great movies (and I have even liked the not so great ones. )

"Don't "yeah,yeah" me, Lois.

His character seemed too over-the-top for me. I love Westerns & this one is good (especially by much of recent Hollywood's standards) with the exception of "Jake". It is not as gritty as I would like b/c the old West was not as clean as this portrayed. But it's a fun enjoyable movie.
