3:10 to Yuma (2007)
Movie
Released
The 1957 film draws superb suspense from waiting in a room. James Mangold's 2007 remake chooses a rougher journey, making Christian Bale's damaged rancher negotiate his son's opinion as well as Russell Crowe's outlaw. That added family pressure is why the expanded action matters. Ben Foster supplies a frighteningly devoted pursuer. The original is tighter; this is the preference when you want the moral contest to spill out into a bruising adventure.
