Last Man Standing (1996 film)
Last Man Standing is a 1996 action film written and directed by Walter Hill. It is a credited remake of the Akira Kurosawa film Yojimbo, which itself was based on Dashiell Hammett's novel Red Harvest. The film stars Bruce Willis, Christopher Walken and Bruce Dern. The film features over-the-top gunfights where people are literally lifted off their feet from the impact of bullets
The film is set during the era of Prohibition in the United States, in which Willis plays a wandering gunman who decides to play off both sides of a gang war that takes place in the violence-riddled town of Jericho, Texas.
The film was a complete flop at the box-office and received dismal critical reviews. Film critic Roger Ebert was quoted as saying, "...there is an indifference to [the film]. This is such a sad, lonely movie."
