'A Million Ways' is like a super vulgar version of 'Blazing Saddles' where most of the racist jokes are replaced with raunchy sex jokes. How does 'A Million Ways' compare to it? Well, it's not quite as great, but it's pretty close. ' Blazing Saddles' is the only other comedic western that I can think of. Knowing that MacFarlane is heavily involved with every aspect of filmmaking, don't expect any half-ass aspects here. The score is also just as amazing as that of any western ever made. With the iconic cinematography style of an old western, it's a gorgeous film. The production value of 'A Million Ways' is so strong that few full-blown westerns have matched it. And, oddly, as vulgar as the dialog is, MacFarlane and Theron somehow have the ability to make it the most charming filthiness you've ever heard. Their characters are so much fun to watch interact. And as much as I like Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis in 'Ted,' MacFarlane and Theron have even better chemistry and comedic timing. The jokes are not only funnier in 'A Million Ways,' but they're tighter and more consistent.

There's a lot more potential for non-repeating jokes in 'A Million Ways' than 'Ted' because the horizon is much broader (literally) in a western than in a movie about a vulgar talking teddy bear. Like everyone, I love MacFarlane's feature live-action directorial debut, 'Ted' - but I think 'A Million Ways' is even better. Although Anna genuinely cares for Albert, she carries a little secret: Anna is actually the wife of the fastest gun-slinging outlaw in the west, Clinch Leatherwood (Liam Neeson). After being ridiculed and made to feel worthless by Louise's new boyfriend Foy (Neil Patrick Harris), Albert challenges him to a duel in the middle of town вЂ“ but that's not nearly the biggest danger in his life. Albert must learn to survive the deadly elements that will threaten his life in this vulnerable period вЂ“ both the things that he's brought upon himself and the uncontrollable outside forces. With the foundation of a solid friendship in place, self-deprecating Albert is unable to see the obvious chemistry that exists between the two of them.ДЄs the title spells it out, staying alive in the wild west isn't easy. It's not long before they discover their shared pessimism for the deadly frontier and desire to escape it.

Outside the chaotic establishment, the two immediately hit it off. In the typical western brawl, the good guy in Albert comes out and he saves a damsel-in-distress, Anna (Charlize Theron), from becoming collateral damage from the fight. On one of his last nights in Old Stump, while sulking in the town bar with his two best friends (Giovanni Ribisi and Sarah Silverman), a newcomer starts a deadly bar fight. He sees his dusty town of Old Stump as being an awful place to exist and decides to make a move to San Francisco. Now with a void in his life, Albert becomes more cynical. The only thing that brings him joy is the love of his life, the woman that he believes has lowered her standards for him, Louise (Amanda Seyfried) - but when Louise realizes that he's not as manly as the other brutes and moustached men in town, she dumps him. While others are out shooting, robbing and fighting, with his humble sheep farm, Albert is doing his best to blend in. His character, Albert Stark, is a misfit in the wild frontier. In the movie itself, MacFarlane is the perfect charismatic and funny leading man. He's a man whose name and voices may be very well known, but his face is still pretty unrecognizable. It's assumed that a major contributor to the movie's box office letdown was ' Family Guy' auteur Seth MacFarlane in the leading role. 'From the guy who brought you ' Ted'' (which is a line that was used abundantly in the marketing plan), it was expected to be an easy home run вЂ“ but that wasn't at all the case. For me, 'A Million Ways to Die in the West' is one of the must underrated movies of the year.
