Of the twelve westerns so far, this is the one my kids want to watch over and over. John Marrs and Shannon Williams really shine in this film. They are both excellent actors and a joy to watch work. Filmed under duress during Covid-19 lockdown, what Travis Mills and crew accomplished last year was nothing short of amazing. Filmed in the Dragoon mountain range in Arizona, the scenery is beautiful and authentic to the story, will watch again!

real gritty western
Better than most old-style Westerns
I like Westerns of the 1940s-1970s and thought that "Counting Bullets" compared well with them. I assume that most of those involved were amateurs, and if so then theirs was a commendable effort.
Another reviewer has mentioned the curiosity of the patrol not retrieving the weapons of ammunition of the killed Comancheros, and nor did it seem to take much in the way of supplies. And the two meaningful conversations between beleaguered members of the patrol went on a bit.
Good photography.
Easily worth a six, I've given it seven.
Atrocious! Thought it was a farce..
Wow, this movie was horrible, at first I thought it was a farce, like a mock comedy western, but it was quickly apparent that not much time was taken into the making of this film.
The actors are horrible, the physical acting is unbearable to watch and cringeworthy. The actors characters/lines are barely put together and lack depth.
Where's the action?
