A spaceship arrives in Arizona, 1873, to take over the Earth, and the whole hard desert town of Absolution is emered in fear. It's up to an amnesiac stranger and local cowboys to save the town.
As its title indicates, this is a strange cross of movie genres, and lest any viewers get antsy, it doesn't allow much time to pass before we first encounter UFOs in the Old West. The film takes its time unraveling the rest of the story...

Cowboys & Aliens is an agreeable time-killer, but I'll bet a couple of clever kids could make a livelier movie with a Woody puppet and a Predator doll.
