Rating: 3.5 cats
Director: Anna Kerrigan
Starring: AJ Slaght | Ann Dowd | Bob Stephenson | Chris Coy | Gary Farmer | Jillian Bell | John Reynolds | Sasha Knight | Steve Zahn
Diane says: “The screenplay was the weak point of COWBOYS for me. Writer/director Anna Kerrigan stuffed it with too many issues (gender identity, mental illness, divorce). Joe’s mother and bullying uncle have such strong feelings, not just about gender identity, but even

Michael says: “I’m not a fan of war films, but leave it Werner Herzog to get me to go to one, and even to enjoy it for the most part. Of course, in most ways, RESCUE DAWN isn’t your typical
